The reduced price enables middle-income couples to access a quality, affordable family planning product.
The partnership is designed to make
more affordable family planning choices available to women through the private
sector and address the growing demand for contraceptives and the overall
sustainability of supply. Family planning allows couples to plan their families
as they desire, reduces the risks from unintended and/or high-risk pregnancies,
and improves the health of mothers and their children by allowing time between
pregnancies.
After the introduction Microgynon®
Fe in Ethiopia, Uganda, Tanzania, Malawi, Rwanda, Ghana, and Kenya, the
Bayer-USAID partnership will expand the initiative to several more Sub-Saharan countries
by 2016. USAID Nigeria’s Director, Health, Population and Nutrition office, Dr.
Nancy Lawenthal, emphasized the importance of public-private partnerships in
helping governments meet their Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). “We are
pleased that this important initiative between USAID and Bayer Healthcare is
being extended to Nigeria. The private sector has an important role to play in
contributing to sustainable development and in this case, by ensuring that
Nigerian women have access to a sustainable supply of quality, affordable oral
contraceptives.”
“Combined oral contraceptives are
99% effective when used consistently and correctly. It also provides women with
a reversible method that is easy to discontinue and has a rapid return to
fertility. Microgynon® Fe is being used by millions of women around the world
and is well known and trusted by medical professionals,” said Dr. O.I. Akinola,
Ostetrician/Gynecologist, and President of the OB/GYN Society of Nigeria. Women
interested in finding out more information about Microgynon® Fe should talk
with their nearest private healthcare provider.
Microgynon® Fe is manufactured in
Germany by Bayer HealthCare and imported to Nigeria by CHI Pharmaceuticals.
