The activity brought together 100 senior citizens, OSCA Heads, and BASCA Officers from Legazpi City and Daraga, Albay, to promote awareness on the safety, quality, effectiveness, and affordability of generic medicines. It also addressed common misconceptions about generics and emphasized the risks of purchasing or selling medicines through unauthorized sources, including sari-sari stores.
The event featured informative discussions from resource speakers from the DOH, DTI, DILG Region V, and FDA, followed by a Medical Caravan of Services in the afternoon.
Through initiatives like this, NCSC Region V continues to support healthy ageing by promoting informed choices, health awareness, and access to quality healthcare for senior citizens.
