Project Details

Explain your idea in details:

Across Africa, a 2021 record estimates around 60 million active users and approximately 34 deaths every minute from the use of controlled medications for non-medical purposes. Access to reliable data to sufficiently promote its safe use in Africa is still a problem. As a result, regulatory bodies are handicapped, while the supply chain of controlled medications is distorted.

Expected impact of your idea on sustainable development

This project focuses on promoting an accountable supply chain, which will effectively prevent access to controlled medications for non-medical use. The positive impact will lead to a drop in drug addiction and preventing drug abuse across Africa.

Plans for implementation and sustainability

Business Model: 10mg operates a B2B business model, the sellers (importers) list their medications, while the buyers (Retail/Hospital Pharmacies) purchase the medications. 10mg earns a fixed percentage on every transaction. Financing Source includes a part funding from the European union development fund for the prototype design and testing and personal investment for product development, marketing etc. In the future we will consider venture capitalist funding. Collaborators: The EU fund for regional development (EFRD), Pharmaceutical Council of Nigeria (PCN), Nigerian Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA), Royal Pharmaceutical Society (RPS), Aston University, Birmingham Enterprise Community (BEC), Sheffield Technology Park (STP), Medical and Dental Council of Nigeria (MDCN), Federal Ministry of Health, Nigeria.

Hello everyone my name is Brenda Clark from Germany. I am on this platform to share my testimony on how Dr Gbogbo helped me shrink my fibroid naturally and gave me some herbal medicines which I use to cure my 6 years of infertility. I have been trying to get pregnant for the past 6 years before I finally met Dr Gbogbo. I had tried several medicines provided by my doctor which all didn't work out and couldn't shrink or get me pregnant. At first when my colleague introduced Dr Gbogbo to me I had a skeptical opinion about African herbal medicines but I had no option than to give it a trial which I did and I got a possible result at the end. I only use it for 2 weeks as directed by Dr Gbogbo. I am a proud mother of twins, This is to every woman suffering from fibroids, pcos and infertility or any health challenge that you're yet to find a solution to. Please meet Dr Gbogbo, He has one of the best herbal medicines from Africa. Thank you all for reading.

10mg pharma is taking a tech based approach to prevent drug abuse in Africa by empowering the regulatory bodies with the data they need. Winning the best idea contest will go a long way in helping us achieve SDG 3.5

I think this idea have impact on human health. Have enough medicine and there distribution to rural area will solve or prevent so many outbreak of some diseases.Some hospitals don't even have enough medicine stored. I believed that when you work on this project it will help reduce inadequate distribution of drugs to hospitals.

The focus of my is to design a supply chain strategy using a platform that can accommodate only licensed pharmacies and hospitals, thereby excluding all unlicensed vendors. With this in place, the regulatory agencies can easily track all transactions, enabling them to know the movement of the controlled medication, preventing drug abuse.

Brother, this is what Africa needs now days, keep it up. and i support you
good luck.
