Safety is a primary concern for NTD programmes. For example, medicines that are donated for treatment are manufactured under stringent regulatory authority guidelines or are prequalified by WHO, with considerable effort in determining safety for mass treatment and in conducting surveillance for serious adverse events. These training modules are intended to help national programmes for neglected tropical diseases (NTDs) plan, prepare and monitor the safe administration of medicines for treatment of these diseases.

This course is based on the Manual on Safety in Administering Medicines for Neglected Tropical Diseases which provides practical tools, training modules and job aids to further improve the planning, preparation, and monitoring of safe administration of NTD medicines.

 

The objective of this course is to enable national NTD programme manager to improve safety of NTD medicine with a safe management of medications, a good knowledge on choking prevention and identification, management and reporting of adverse events.
