Ugandans, young and old. This serves to introduce to you a drug called ERGOMETRINE INJECTION. This is a drug that is injected to a mother immediately after birth. It stops bleeding. This drug is available in every pharmacy, drug shop or commercial drug store every where in the country. On Wednesday 4th March 20015, I walked into a pharmacy in Najjanankumnbi-Kampala and bought these 10 doses at ug sh 5000 (five thousand). One dose which is just a enough for a mother to live after delivering a Ugandan costs ug sh 500 (five hundred). This drug is not available in Ugandan government health centers and hospitals including Mulago- reason why 19 women die every day while giving birth.
Much as mothers are told to come along with other items needed for them to deliver (for they are not available in our health facilities) like gloves, Razor blade, syringes, etc... no body has ever told mothers to buy and come along with this drug
