Drug Distribution Flow
Learning ObjectivesExplain the NTEP drug distribution flow.
Under the National TB Elimination Programme (NTEP), the anti-TB drugs are procured at the centre level by the Central TB Division (CTD), Ministry of Health and Family Welfare (MoHFW), and supplied to the central warehouses.
From the central level warehouses, the drugs are supplied to different State Drug Stores (SDS) and further distributed to District Drug Stores (DDS) and sub-district level (TB Unit (TU) Store and Peripheral Health Institute (PHI)).
This movement of drug flow is monitored in real-time through Ni-kshay Aushadhi.
