Ukuthembela kumaphilisi ezinhlungu ezinzima ezigulini eziningi kuphezulu phakathi kweqembu elikhulu labantu. Lokhu kungaholela ekubeni umlutha ophikelelayo kulawa okuthiwa ama-opioid afana ne-fentanyl, i-oxycodone ne-morphine. Isibalo seziguli ezinikezwe lo muthi onzima sikhuphuke ngamaphesenti angu-5 ngonyaka odlule uma kuqhathaniswa no-2021.
Kubasebenzisi abangaphezu kwesigidi, abangu-600.000 baphuze isidakamizwa esinamandla, ukwanda ngamaphesenti angu-6,4 uma kuqhathaniswa nonyaka odlule. Lokhu kubonakala ngezibalo ze-Foundation for Pharmaceutical Key Figures. Lokhu kuthinta imikhiqizo ehlinzekwa ekhemisi. Lokhu akubandakanyi ukusetshenziswa ezigulini ezinomdlavuza esibhedlela futhi zisetshenziswe ekunakekelweni kwe-palliative, ngokusho kwesihloko se-NOS. Kuleli qembu, bayanda abantu abasebenzisa umuthi osebenza isikhathi esifushane. Lokho kungaphezu kuka-430.000, okuwukwanda ngamaphesenti angu-7,9.
Inkinga ye-opioid
EMelika, incwadi kadokotela yesikhathi eside nelula ngokweqile yale mithi esindayo iholele ekutheni a inkinga ye-opioid okuholele ekufeni kwabantu abangaphezu kuka-100.000 ngonyaka odlule. Kulinganiselwa ukuthi abantu baseMelika abangaba yizigidi ezingu-46 bahlushwa ukulutheka. Ngo-2019, uNgqongqoshe uBruins Wokunakekelwa Kwezempilo wamemezela izindlela zokunciphisa ukusetshenziswa kwezidakamizwa amaphilisi ezinhlungu ezinzima nciphisa. Kwabe sekuba sobala ukuthi odokotela bavame ukunikeza umuthi kalula futhi iziguli zithola kalula izincwadi eziphindaphindwayo. Uveze izinombolo eziningi zemilutha e-US futhi wathi akafuni ukuthi iNetherlands ihambe ngaleyo ndlela. Nokho kwenzeka okuphambene.
Ezincomweni kubasebenzi abavamile, uNgqongqoshe ophumayo u-Kuipers ngonyaka odlule wakhuthaza ukunquma ama-opioid isikhathi esifushane ngangokunokwenzeka futhi akhiphe kuphela imiyalelo ephindaphindiwe ngemva kokubonisana okusha. Ngokusho kuka-Nivel, isikhungo solwazi lwezempilo, isibalo sabantu abanikezwe ama-opioid ngu-GP wabo sizinzile eminyakeni yamuva. Kodwa isibalo seziguli ezithola amaphilisi ezinhlungu asindayo sisakhula. Okwamanje akukacaci ukuthi kungani lokhu kwenzeka.
