Saving Mothers' Lives in Rural Tanzania
Tanzania, United Republic of
Women and Girls
Center for Health Market Innovations
An affordable, generic medicine prevents excessive bleeding after childbirth. We can save thousands of lives by making this medicine - misoprostol - available to women who cannot reach a facility in time to deliver. Simple to use, a mother swallows three tablets immediately after delivering her baby to prevent life-threatening hemorrhaging. Since introducing the medicine to Tanzania, VSI is working to ensure that women can access this life-saving medicine when and where they need it most.
