Florida, Apr. 19 – The deficient arrival of raw materials for the manufacture of phytopharmaceuticals constitutes a brake for the laboratory of the Natural and Traditional Medicine Pharmacy of the municipality of Florida, an establishment whose products are in great demand among the population, especially the elderly.
The shortage of sugar, alcohol, vaseline and menthol, among others, blocks the production of creams, syrups, fluid extracts, tinctures and frictions such as Muralla, all of them of great popular acceptance and alternatives for the relief of chronic diseases and various health problems.
However, according to the information provided by Yusmaile Basulto Rojas, administrator of the aforementioned pharmaceutical company in Florida, the agreements with agricultural entities allow maintaining a considerable reserve of medicinal plants, or dry drugs, while waiting for the rest of the components that will allow stabilizing the production cycle.
The same official commented that, contradictorily, to date they are fulfilling their plans for the production and sales of natural medicines; a result that is possible due to the high prices of products such as shampoo, honey syrups and tea, which are almost unattainable for the pockets of the most regular customers of this manufacturing institution.
