Even so, the Popular Pharmacy Program was created to increase the population's access to medicines and health products. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The program also provides sanitary napkins for women in situations of social vulnerability. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

So the aim is to ensure that all women have access to products that are essential for their health and hygiene.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Soon after, Farm\u00e1cia Popular offered these products in accredited pharmacy units, allowing people to pick up their pads free of charge. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
