Quantitative assessment of national essential medicines lists processes
The National Essential Medicines List (NEML) selection process is a foundational component of an essential medicines based policy, and the NEML itself is a key policy tool. The World Health Organization (WHO) provides guidance for policy development that aligns with the Accountability for Reasonableness (AFR) framework, along with a model Essential Medicines List (EML) to support NEML selection process development. An effective selection process …
An essential medicines list in Ireland

For this qualitative study, we purposeful…

Relation between opioid consumption and inclusion of opioids in 137 national essential medicines lists
INTRODUCTION: Opioids are deemed essential medicines by the World Health Organization (WHO). However, many countries have inadequate access to them. Whether including opioids in national essential medicines lists (EMLs) influences national opioid consumption has not been evaluated. METHODS: We conducted a cross-sectional study to determine whether the listing of opioids in national EMLs was associated with consumption. We quantified the numbers a…
A comparison of national essential medicines lists in the Americas
Objectives. To compare national essential medicines lists (NEMLs) from countries in the Region of the Americas and to identify potential opportunities for improving those lists. Methods. In June of 2017, NEMLs from 31 countries in the Americas were abstracted from documents included in a World Health Organization (WHO) repository. The lists from the Americas were compared to each other and to NEMLs from outside of the Americas, as well as with th…
