Use of malaria medicines is essential and critical in our response to the malaria situation in Guyana. It is
part of the final link between patients and health services. Availability of malaria medicines and
diagnostic supplies can only be realized by improving the opportunity to manage these commodities in
an efficient manner.
For these reasons, this manual will address all aspects of the pharmaceutical management cycle. The
manual provides basic information for the successful operation of the supply chain for Malaria
Medicines and Supplies. The intention is to use this manual for training and orientation of health
workers in best practices of the drug management cycle, in pursuit of securing performance
improvements to the malaria program.
