Abstract
Change is_ accelerating at an unprecedented rate: at present. Globalization is but one aspect of changed linking people's lives, more deeply, more intensely and more immediately than before. However, Globalization is a process integrating not just the economy, but culture technology and governance(1). It is now evident that the prevailing economic conditions, highly affected by the structural adjustment policies in most third world countries- result in a wakening of the health sector. Public- sector Drug budgets are often too small to procure low- cost, essential Drug for the sufficient quantities of population in need, yet these budgets can consume 30- 50 percent of the total health Expenditure of many third Drugs that reach the people is undeveloped(2).
