The HIV/AIDS Department of WHO has issued a note to National AIDS Programmes, procurement agents, and stakeholders on the potential stock-out of paediatric ddI 25mg and 50mg buffered tablets. In the note, WHO recommends a series of short-term actions to minimize the impact of a potential stock-out of paediatric ddI 25mg and 50mg. In addition, a number of longer-term actions are also recommended with the aim of rationalizing the use of ddI products in children in line with the new WHO normative guidance on the use of ARVs in second-line therapy.

In addition to serving any project or implementing partner supported by the President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR), we can also supply projects supported by national governments and other donors subject to individual arrangements.
