Prescribed diabetic treatment unavailable from state

Malta Independent Thursday, 27 June 2013, 07:58 Last update: about 14 years ago

I am a diabetic patient and my doctor prescribed a diabetic treatment called Januvia.

I went to the Pharmacy of Your Choice and was told that the government does not give this treatment yet.

I would like to ask the health authorities why this treatment is not offered to Maltese patients as it seems that it is a treatment given free by the governments in most of the countries in the European Union.
