Your mail dated March 8,, 2007 refers.

Is Nicosan available in Pharmacies in Nigeria? - YES, but in limited drug quantities.

Is it, presently, being prescribed by doctors? - YES, clinics and hospitals.

Is it available "over the counter", for purchase? - YES, patients can buy direct.

How available is it? I mean, is it widely available? - NO, but there is an approval request list managed by the Gov. to increase distribution based on availability of the drug.

I have heard of the Nigerian Governemnt may be proposing a pre-purchase of Nicosan, paid for with Government funds, have you heard anything about this? - Yes, but cannot discuss.

Increasing available drug quantities to meet an anxious demand is needed.

Thank you.
