AIDS medicines and diagnostics service (AMDS)

AMDS banner

Universal access to prevention, treatment and care of HIV/AIDS requires a wide variety of HIV commodities including medicines for antiretroviral treatment, HIV diagnostics, condoms and others. The AMDS, a team in the HIV/AIDS Department, is the secretariat of a network for supply management of HIV commodities and brokers cooperation between technical partners, funding agencies, manufacturing companies and other organizations.

AMDS also operates a clearing house collecting and disseminating strategic information through Global price reporting mechanism, Drug regulatory data database, and ARV forecast integrated in this website or through a dedicated website for PSM tools.
