CHAPTER I

INTRODUCTION The concept of Essential Medicine in Indonesia was first introduced with the publication of The National List of Essential Medicines (NLEM) in 1978, followed by the National Medicines Policy document in 1983. The National List of Essential Medicines, named DOEN (NLEM) is revised periodically every 3-4 years. DOEN 2008 is a revised edition. The Government’s commitment to do periodic revisions is a reputation of its own. In the year 2007, the World Health Organization (WHO) has carried out the first phase of Good Governance on Medicines (GGM) program in Indonesia by conducting a survey on transparency of five pharmaceutical functions. One of them is the selection process of essential medicines, which from the aspect of transparency process is valued to be insufficient. From the meeting of the 30th WHO Essential Medicine List in Sri Lanka (2007), it was reiterated that the importance of transparency of the selection process both by expert panel members who do revisions, revision process, and revision methods which have got to be more rely on evidence based medicine (EBM), and the importance of the conflict of interest statement from expert panel members. Recalling some of the above mentioned issues, this year’s (2008) revision has been geared into its betterment. Because of it, the revision process this time is rather different from the earlier revision process, some of these improvements are as follows:

1. The selection of expert panel members has been tightly scrutinized, including valuation against conflict of interest.

2. Since the beginning of discussion, program managers who use medicines in the environment of the Ministry of Health have been included, not only during the plenary meeting. This endeavor is hoped to be a re-learning process to the internal of the Ministry of Health to fully understand the concept of essential medicines.

3. Besides the opinion and experiences of expert panel members in this revision team, the utilization of evidence based medicine (EBM) data are important considerations.

4. The entire discussion process gives great attention to medicines for children, including its formulation. The WHO essential medicines list for children has been used as one of the guidelines. The siding with the individual rights of children is also shown by electing pediatricians into the expert panel that numbered to 4 (four) persons.

5. Revision of the medicines list has been holistic and total, meaning weighing all medicines listed in the NLEM 2005 including notes which may no longer be deemed fit. Earlier revisions were more in the evaluation of medicines which are suggested to be added on in the previous list.

6. Transparency is also displayed with descriptions of arguments why a medicine must be deleted or be added from the NLEM 2005, or even be change of dosage form.

A. National Essential Medicines

Essential medicines are chosen medicines which are most needed to cater to the diagnoses, prophylaxis, therapy, and rehabilitation, which are made available to the health service units in accordance to its functions and tiers.

1. Criteria of National Essential Medicines

a. Selection Criteria

Selection of essential medicines is based on these criteria:

(1) Having got the most beneficial risk-benefit ratio.

(2) Guaranteed of quality, including stability and bio-availability.

(3) Practicality in storage and distribution.

(4) Practical in use and delivery, which are adjusted to man power and health services facilities.

(5) Advantageous in compliance and reception by patients.

(6) Having got the highest benefit-cost ratio based on direct and indirect expenses for the patient.

(7) If there is more than one choice which have the same therapeutic effects, then preference is made for:

- medicines with effects which are known to have scientific data; - medicines with pharmacokinetic data which are known to be most

beneficial; - medicines with better stability; - easily obtainable; - medicines that are most familiar.

(8) Fixed combination medicines have to follow the following criteria:

- the compounded medicine is useful in the form of that combination only;

- combination medicines have got to show higher efficacy and safety than each individual component;

- ratio of the components of patent combination medicines are ratios which are fixed for a large number of patients who need those combination medicines;

- combination medicines have got to increase the benefit-cost ratio; - combination antibiotics it must also prevent or lessen the

occurrences of resistance or other disadvantageous effects.

Page 10: Essential Medicines 2008 - Indonesia

b. Criteria of Additions and Deletions

1. When addition of new medicines are considered, the existing old medicines with the same indications which may be obsolete should be taken into account, unless there is a strong reason to keep both of them.

2. Medicines used in special program(s) are suggested by the program manager and will be assessed by general EM selection criteria.

3. In the revision process, the entire medicine list in the NLEM (2005) is evaluated by the National Revisions Committee. Deletion of medicines which are seen as no longer effective may here be decided upon or a substitution may be done when another better medicine has been available.

c. Guidance on Evidence and Recommendation

Proof of evidence and recommendations are adopted from the US Agency for Health Care Policy and Research. The type of study should rely on scientific data, such as depicted in the list below, but the recommendation should depend on the overall judgement of all available data. Testimonials are not considered for assessment.

STATEMENTS OF EVIDENCE

Ia Data are obtained from meta-analysis of randomized, controlled clinical

trials. Ib Data are obtained from at least one randomized, controlled clinical trial. IIa Data are obtained from at least one non-randomized and well designed

clinical trial. IIb Data are obtained from at least one quasi-experiment of another type of

study that is well designed. III Data are obtained from descriptive study that is well designed, like

comparative study, correlation study, and case study. IV Data are obtained from reports or opinion of expert panels.

2. Application of Concept of Essential Medicines

Essential medicines are the most basic medicines which are needed to cater for health services. If other than listed NLEM medicines are needed, a (Hospital) Formulary or another limited medicine list may be instituted.

The NLEM may also be expanded into other documents as the needs arise.

National List of Essential Medicines 2008

Page 11: Essential Medicines 2008 - Indonesia

a. National List of Essential Medicines (NLEM)

National List of Essential Medicines consists of selected, most needed medicines and made to be available at health services units in accordance with its functionality and its levels. NLEM are a national minimum standard to health services.

Implementation of NLEM is meant to increase the efficacy, safety, rational use, and medicine management which altogether increase efficiency of available cost, which in turn extends coverage and increase average quality of medicine prescriptions. Application of this National Essential Medicines Policy must be done consistently, and continuously at all levels of health services units.

Medicine dosage-form and strength, such as tablets, syrups, injections, and other forms, unit strength, dose, and size of package indicated in the NLEM are binding, in order to create standards. Sizes of packaging for each health service unit are based on logistics efficiency while distribution is related with common usage.

b. Therapeutic Guidelines

Medication Guidelines should be systematically structured to help physicians to make a correct diagnosis and optimal medication for a certain kind of disease. Guidelines of medication should be suited for every level of health services units, such as guidelines in basic medication at Public Health Center and guidelines in diagnosis and therapy at local hospitals.

Medication Guidelines consist of information about all kinds of diseases, especially sicknesses which are occurring frequently - with their respective complaints - and information about dosage form, unit strength, dose of medicines and length of time of medication.

c. Hospital Formulary

A hospital formulary is a list of medicines which have been agreed upon by key hospital physicians and their inherent (medicine) information which are used in the hospital concerned. A national hospital formulary is written by the Medicine and Therapeutic Committee based on NLEM and elaborated upon by taking into account other medicines proven effective which are needed by specialties in the concerned hospitals. The creation of a hospital formulary has to be based on therapeutic guidelines. The implementation of a hospital formulary must be monitored and its report be used to carry out evaluation and revision so as to keep up with advancements of scientific knowledge and medical science.

d. Specialists’ Formulary

Specialists’ formularies are books which are consist of comprehensive complete information on medicines needed by certain specialists of a hospital, to be used for patient care with special disease indications.

Specialists’ formularies are written to increase compliance of hospital specialists towards their hospital formulary, that has been ranked very low until today. Certain

National List of Essential Medicines 2008

Page 12: Essential Medicines 2008 - Indonesia

specializations may have many sub-specializations, for example the field of obstetrics and gynecology as a specialization that has got many sub-specializations, that special essential medicines list can be made for Obstetrics and Gynecology. The writings of a specialists’ formulary involve specialist professional association with its many sub-branches. With the involvement and active participation of specialists it is expected that they will feel that they are part of the association, so that rational medicine use can be positively applied.

e. National Indonesian Medicine Information

National medicine information consists of medicines which are on the market and are presented briefly, are relevant to physicians’ needs, pharmacists, and other health services workers. The National Indonesian Medicine Information is published by the Ministry of Health to guarantee objectivity, completeness, and unconfounding. Information on medicines that are covers indications, side-effects, dosages, how to use, and other important information which are most important for patients. The development of this book was based on more scientific data, related to benefits and actual medicine use.

3. Management and Medicine Use

To improve rational medicine use, the use of essential medicines at health service units should follow treatment guidelines and proper medicine management be instituted.

Effective medicine management is required to guarantee medicine availability in the right kinds and quantities while fulfilling quality standards. Important aspects of medicine management are as follows:

- Limitation of numbers and kinds of medicines based on an Essential Medicines List, using generic names, with a correct selection process;

- Bulk purchasing should be applied; - Competitive, transparent purchases; - Audit system and reporting from management report.

Application of Government Regulation Number 38 year 2007 on the coordination of the governance between the Central Government and the Provincial Government and other regional governments in order to synchronize its health management in the country. So, as with medicine management organizations, each state/city has got organizational structures and their own medicine management policies. This would open up basic differences in each state/city in carrying out medicine management.

The cycle of medicine distribution is started at the time a medicine is delivered from the factory or distributor, and it ends at the time medicine consumption reports are handed in to the logistics unit. Effective medicine distribution should have a system design and sound management such as: constant medicine supply, taking care of the quality of medicines at the time of distribution process, minimizing medicines which are unused because of spoilage or being expired, with correct planning in accordance with each province’s medicine needs, use of inventory records which are accurate, rationalization of medicine depots, and supply of information to estimate medicine needs.

National List of Essential Medicines 2008

Page 13: Essential Medicines 2008 - Indonesia

With decentralization in place it is hoped that state government or city or provinces can sufficiently supply respective individual medicine needs. The central government, in this matter, the Ministry of Health only lends back-up support when state/city or province cannot fully supply the medicine needs. The NLEM is a base for planning and supply or logistics of medicines in local (district/province/city) and central government.

Management and use of specialists’ medicines for certain situations, the government c.q. Directorate General of Pharmaceutical Services and Medical Devices, Ministry of Health can provide these through special channels (special access scheme) in accordance with The Decree of Minister of Health Number: 1379.A/Menkes/SK/XI/2002.

4. Communication, Information, and Education(CIE)

CIE on essential medicines are a pre-requisite to improve the use of medicines and rational prescribing by health providers. CIE for health providers and the public in general to increase rational use of medicines and be maintained continuously should use the following links:

a. Governmental organizations/private institutions. b. Related professional organization. c. Curriculum of education for health providers. d. Other possible channels.

Every listed medicine in NLEM must be accompanied by accurate information that is objective and understandable by health providers. This information covers indication, contraindication, dose, how to use, caution remarks, side-effects, medicine interaction, and dosage forms of preparations.

5. Research and Development

Research and development should be done to support the selection process and improvement of the NLEM. Research and development are done in line with medical science and technology in the subjects of medicine, pharmacy, epidemiology, and education. The outcome or result of research and development are utilized as inputs in the revision process and improvement of NLEM periodically.

6. Monitoring and Evaluation

Monitoring and evaluation are done to support the success of the application of the NLEM through mechanism and output evaluation of potential underlying problems and its effective solutions. This can be achieved through co-ordination, supervision, monitoring and evaluation of application of the NLEM by the Ministry of Health. Monitoring and evaluation are done gradually fitting to functions and levels.

7. NLEM Revisions

NLEM has to be revised and perfected periodically. Revisions are not only for keeping up with the advancement of knowledge, but also for practical reasons in the use and dispensing which fits health providers and the health service facilities.

National List of Essential Medicines 2008

6

Page 14: Essential Medicines 2008 - Indonesia

Perfection of NLEM is done continuously with input of suggestions from health service units and health research, whether governmental or private, conveyed to the Directorate General of Pharmaceutical Services and Medical Devices, Ministry of Health, Republic of Indonesia. NLEM revisions are done periodically every 3 (three) years.

8. Quality Control

Total medicine quality control covers the phases of product development, good manufacturing practices, monitoring of medicine quality in the distribution chain and their use, are important elements in applying the essential medicines concept.

9. Antibiotics Resistance

Antibiotic resistance will increase, especially with first-line essential antibiotics, which are relatively inexpensive. This condition is dangerous, because ultimately the public will lose sensitive antibiotics that are potential in fighting infectious diseases which are newly occurring or recurring. The reason is because of irrational use of antibiotics by both of health providers or patients.

In overcoming the problem of antibiotic resistance it takes the following efforts:

a. Conducting surveillance of microbe resistance so that antibiotics resistance patterns are obtained.

b. Surveillance of antibiotic use

Surveillance of antibiotic use is done by research institutions, hospitals, and public health centers, province or district health offices and other health, education and research institutions.

c. Containing antibiotic use by health providers by applying antibiotic prescription policy gradually, fitting to the conditions of patients and disease patterns, using first-choice antibiotics from the start, and reserving other antibiotics of subsequent choice for limited use.

d. To provide communication, information and education towards all parties using antibiotics whether they be health workers, patients or the public in general about how to use antibiotics rationally and the danger, caused by irrational use of medicines.

10. Donated Medicines

Donations in the form of money or medicines from another country, private organizations, or other international bodies can support the public health services in a country that needs it. In its operation, medicines donation must fulfill the requirements as described in WHO Guidelines for Medicines Donations 1999. Health services being used must fulfill a certain existing applicable guidelines/standards. This guideline covers general principles about selection of medicines, quality of medicines, shelf life, packaging and labeling, information and management.

National List of Essential Medicines 2008

7

Page 15: Essential Medicines 2008 - Indonesia

Four main principles of donated medicines are:

• Donated medicines must provide maximum usefulness to recipient country. • Understand the needs and respecting the authority of recipient country. • Does not use double standards for the quality of donated medicines. • Effective communication between donor country and recipient country.

Donated medicines are best received when they are in accordance with NLEM. In order for medicines supply and health logistics can help the operations of health workers, the types of medicines and health logistics must coincide with the disease patterns in Indonesia.

For medicines which are not marketed in Indonesia acceptance must follow a special channel (special access scheme), in accordance with the existing applicable rule.

B. Terminologies

1. Contents and Format of NLEM

a. The National Essential Medicine list is used as the basis for all units of (governmental) health services.

C. Renewal of Revision Process

Discussions were not conducted only limited to incoming requests, but revaluating the whole NLEM of 2005. This was done because the list was only updated during previous years and some old medicines have become obsolete or new and better medicines have become available. Also some uses of older medicines have been renewed and some have made other restrictions.

Expert teams and consultants work together in the discussion that is divided into several groups based on therapeutic class. Consultants are responsible for EBM data in accordance with his/her competence. Besides information from consultants and expert team, the secretariat supported fully with among others, information from Cochrane review and WHO Library. From this process, although EBM information is not always totally accepted, but discussions are no longer based on level-4 evidence or expert team opinion only.

Understanding the concept of essential medicines has to be re-socialized. Seemingly, the understanding of the essential medicines is withering and explanation about this concept is appreciated. ‘Essential Medicine is a floor not a ceiling’ (WHO TRS 946), it is a minimum for health care. A medicine is essential when you can’t do without it. The difference of essential medicines and program medicines will result in the availability of a specific medicine. This problem is overcome by socialization and special policies by the Ministry of Health relating to essential medicines and program medicines.

In the revision process, from the start it has been planned to give attention to medicines for children. This policy is not only meant for harmony with the global policy, but Indonesia is consistently aiming at decreasing mortality of babies and children, so that it needs this emphasis. The involvement of four pediatricians, give sufficient contributions for this problem. Also the involvement of the Directorate of Child Health and other directorates are very intensive. The addition of medicines for children with dosage forms especially for children, like carbamazepine, is provided in the form of syrup.

In the final discussion of the Plenary Meeting it has been agreed that 78 medicines has been deleted from NLEM 2005 and 48 were added to the new list of 2008. Changes in formulations

National List of Essential Medicines 2008

10

Page 18: Essential Medicines 2008 - Indonesia

(forms of preparations, dosages, packaging) was agreed for 21 medicines. It was found that 33 medicines were given short notes as important to be provided or supplied by the government through ways fitting with the existing applicable policies. The total number of medicines in the NLEM 2008 is 323 medicine items.

1. Revision Process

Revision processes started by sending letters to government health services institutions (hospital types A, B, C, public health center) as well as several chosen private parties, special programs in the Ministry of Health and professional organizations. Three months later, from 114 installations to whom letters were sent to, 25 had responded. From those responses three had ”no suggestion”, 22 were responding with “request for additions to the list”, and there was no one responding to delete medicines from the old list. Although in the letter sent, it has been informed that suggestion has got to come together with supporting data and functions, only 10 installations were sending supporting data. Besides suggestions from the installations, the expert team and consultants, may give suggestions with supportive data.

This process is a yardstick in carrying out the assessment, it is needed to build transparency process and accountability in the future. The process consists of creation of a committee, criteria of recruitment of expert team members, tasks and obligations of expert team members, revision processes, holding discussion meetings and socialization of NLEM.

4. Explanation of changes made

Medicine changes made in NLEM 2008 whether generic names or their formulations, based on therapeutic classes are as follows:

1. Analgesics, Antipyretics, Non-steroidal Anti-inflammatory Medicines, Medicines used to treat gout

1.1 Opioid Analgesics

Sufentanyl in the form of citrate 50 mcg/ml, was taken out from the list, because of poor availability in the market.

1.2 Non-opioid Analgesics

Methampyron i.m. inj. 250 mg/ml was taken out from the list for safety reason, where in the form of injection may cause anaphylactic shock. Suggestion to add ketoprofen supp. 100 mg and paracetamol supp. 120 mg and 240 mg were accepted, recalling that ketoprofen supp. is used for post-surgical patients who cannot yet receive oral medicine forms, while it is non-irritant to the stomach. While paracetamol supp. is needed to prevent febrile convulsion cases, post-surgery in children, in line with pediatric procedures. Availability and procurement of paracetamol supp., are limited to district level hospitals.

1.3 Anti-gout

Colchicine tablets 500 mcg has been listed in NLEMs from the start. But with the availability of many NSAIDs, its efficacy is valued not much different from other NSAID medicines, while their safety is lower than colchicine. Thus colchicine was taken out from the list. The WHO Model List 2007 did not contain colchicines either.

2. Anesthetics

2.1 Local Anesthetics

Lidocaine inj 5% + glucose 7.5% 2 ml amp was suggested to be added, especially for spinal anesthesia, in areas where bupivacaine are difficult to get. Besides, toxic effects against the heart is smaller. Lidocaine inj. 1% (HCl) + epinefrin 1 : 200,000 in packaging of 20 and 30 ml were deleted from the list, because the packaging is seen to be too large, so it would cause spoilage if not finished.

National List of Essential Medicines 2008

15

Page 23: Essential Medicines 2008 - Indonesia

2.2 General Anesthetics and Oxygen

Suggested liquid isoflurane liq. 3 – 3.5 % 250 ml are accepted, because of advantages to the heart and are used for patients with specific certain conditions. Midazolam inj. i.v. 1 mcg/ml and i.v. inj. 5 mg/ml are choice medicine for patients with fragile vital signs, as sedative, hypnotic, and pre-anaesthetics. While liquid enflurane ih., btl 250 ml was taken out of the list with the reason being less advantageous if compared with isoflurane and halothane. While Thiopental powder. inj. i.v. 1,000 mg/ml was taken out from the list because of safety consideration.

5. Antiepileptic-Anticonvulsants

Suggestion of addition in the dosage form of syrup and chewable tablet for pediatric patients are accepted. So, in this class were listed: fenitoin syrup 50 mcg/5 ml, carbamazepin 100 mg/ml bottle 120 ml, chewable tablets 100 mg. Phenobarbital tab 50 mg was added, because it was still effective and cheap.

6. Anti-infective

In several previous revisions of NLEMs, cephalosporines were always suggested to be added, but only this time the National Committee, gave way to cephazolin with limitation to special use of surgery prophylaxis inj. 1 g/vial. Cephazolin is a chosen medicine for surgery prophylaxis to prevent surgical wounds infection. The same thing happens to Ceftriaxone inj. 1 g/vial, that is a chosen medicine for meningitis and is used for resistant cases of typhoid fever with chloramphenicol and cyprofloxacin. The delay of entry of cephalosporine antiinfectives is caused by the fast growing anti-infective resistance in hospitals, especially.

Expert team agreed to accept the inclusion of vancomycine inj. 500 mg to overcome MRSA (methicillin resistant S. aureus) infection, a serious nasocomial infection. Amphotericine*) inj. i.v. vial 50 mg was requested and accepted for inclusion, because it is the only systemic antifungal, mainly for pulmonary fungal infection. In the list it was marked *) that means “needing special expertise in its use”.

For anti-amoebic diloxanide furoate tab 500 mg was included, recalling the importance of treatment of cysts that does not show physical symptoms. In the anti-malarial case arthesunate inj. i.v. 60 mg/ml was added, that was valued to be having better efficacy compared to artemether inj., although from the side of usage artemether is more practical for public health center (primary health service units).

In the antiviral protease inhibitor group lopinavir were added because they were needed for HIV/AIDS, although their prices are higher. In anti-tuberculosis medicines, besides a few single medicines are provided, listed were some combination medicines for use by program needs. But in the case of dosage forms, it was left to program needs, whether they be in the form of FDC (fixed dose combination), or combipack. Single preparations are maintained for use in health services which are not yet able to carry out direct observed treatment shortcourse (DOTS) program.

National List of Essential Medicines 2008

Page 24: Essential Medicines 2008 - Indonesia

8. Antineoplastic, Immunosuppressive and Medicines used in Palliative Care

Chlormetin and levamisol were taken out of the list, because they were no longer in use as anticancer medicines, because of their efficacy and safety. Addition of daunorubicin HCl powder inj. was suggested and accepted by expert team, as well as chlorambucil tablet 2 mg and melfalan tablet 2 mg. Daunorubicin is a main medication in Acute Lymphocyte Leukemia that is often found in children. Chlorambucil is low priced, registered in Indonesia and is in accordance with the WHO Model List. Melfalan is a cheap medicine and is needed in the treatment of multiple myeloma.

14. Dental Medication and Oral Health

From this therapeutic class many are evaluated as obsolete, even their uses are no longer being taught by Dental Schools, for example sulpha cones preparation and iodoform paste. There are some which are causing environmental damage, like the use of amalgam, because of that it is agreed upon that composite be used.

17. Cardiovascular Medicines

In this therapeutic category a few changes in subclass or deletions of medicines were applied because they are no longer in production and are no longer available in the market like procainamide, reserpine, quinidine. In the subclass of antiarrythmic added were amiodarone and digoxin. In the antihypertension class sodium nitroprusid inj. was added to be used for its specific efficacy in surgery needing hypotension technique and septic shock.

18. Dermatological Medicines

Many medicines were deleted because of obsolescence, for example gentian violet, liver oil ointment. These liquids like lotio kummerfeldi, if needed, can be entered into a hospital formulary.

New additions which are accepted are permethrine as an antiscabicide that is less toxic to children, in place of Gamexan. Other addition is Liquor Veilli (diluted salicylic acid), a simple effective medicine for wet dermatitis.

20. Electrolytes and Nutrients

Oral rehydration salt in 1000 ml sacchets are deleted from the list, because the packaging is too large, inefficient to store and it does not maintain freshness for long time. Only 200 ml sachets are available.

In the case of parenteral nutrition liquid namely liquid nutrients i.v. all of them were deleted from the list. The National Committee, especially expert team and consultants, are well aware of the importance of this preparation, but compositions which are available in the market vary and were too many, with uses which may be different.

National List of Essential Medicines 2008

17

Page 25: Essential Medicines 2008 - Indonesia

For children use and neonates in this therapeutic class liquid nutrients were added: glucose 4% + NaCl 0.18% infusion, and sodium bicarbonate inj. 1.4% isotonic.

23. Psychotherapeutic Medicines

Alprazolam was deleted because valued to be non-essential and tend to cause overuse and dependence. In subclass therapy antidepression and antimania it was suggested addition of fluoxetine, sertraline and paroxetine. Fluoxetine cap/tab10 mg and cap/tab 20 mg were accepted as choice medicines for category SSRI.

In the antipsychotic subclass racemic methylphenidat addition was suggested in the form of regular release and extended release to be used for Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder (ADHD). Although evidence has not fully supported, but all these times it has been a choice medicine for ADHD. Addition of chlozapine was accepted because it is a selected medicine for other resistant antipsychotic medicines. This medicine is effective but it is necessary to watch for agranulocytosis side effect. Periodic leucocytes counts must be taken.

28. Ear treatment, Nose, and Throat

Important changes took place in looking at ear treatment, nose, and throat. Experts considered that treatment of ear infection does not need to use antibiotics or corticosteroids. Other than that antibiotic preparations in the form of nose or ear drops are not listed in the WHO Model List.

D. Socialization of NLEM 2008

In applying essential medicines concept, NLEM 2008 must be spread to health service facilities in the entire Indonesia. Socialization can be in the form of printed books which are delivered to all health service units and publicized in electronic form.
