Abstract

FIGUEREDO DE PEREZ, Daniel Andrés  and  VARGAS CHAVES, Iván. Access to medicines in Colombia and the contours of a right and a pharmaceutical policy halfway through. Justicia [online]. 2020, vol.25, n.37, pp.125-150. ISSN 0124-7441.  https://doi.org/10.17081/just.25.37.3528.

This article has a contrast of the elements of pharmaceutical policy in Colombia versus the policies of the World Health Organization to guarantee the right of access to medicines. The authors make an inductive analysis, based on the legal framework of reference compiled in current norms, doctrine and jurisprudence to present a critique and make a proposal; as a result of this exercise. At the end of the text, a series of recommendations are presented as a guide to help improve indicators of access to medicines in Colombia.

Keywords : access to medications; right to health; pharmaceutical policy; public health.
