Medicines and milk go up

[NewsWhore]

Baby milk products and medicines have increased in price. According to a report by Aleida Plasencia in Hoy, a tour of several pharmacies revealed increased prices for formula, water for formula and medicines. In neighborhoods like La Fe, Naco and Cristo Rey, the effects of the strong euro, the increasing costs of raw materials and rising fuel prices all influence the cost of these important products. According to one source, the Bristol-Myers company has withdrawn from the Dominican market. According to Ms. Plasencia, a major concern is that the Family Health System (ARS) does not recognize the new prices for medicines and formula, and many of those interviewed told the reporter that their health care provider has denied the additional price increases for heart medicines or cold medicines.
