Abstract

The pharmaceutical sector is governed in Niger by a number of scattered texts. After the independence, it was only in 1988 that the National Council of the Order of Medical doctors, Pharmacists and Dentists (CNO/MPCD) got created, then in 1995, the adoption of the national pharmaceutical policy (NPP). The NPP laid the foundations for the development of specific pharmacy and drug legislation and led to the adoption of the law and its subsequent implementing texts. This article aims to make an inventory, an analysis of texts relating to pharmacy and medicine in Niger, areas for improvement with regards to the application of these texts and the contributions of community texts in strengthening national regulations and the preservation of public health.
