In Tehran, a local doctor shared the challenges faced in procuring necessary medications, often having to rely on limited supplies or outdated alternatives. Similarly, a pharmacy manager highlighted the difficulties in maintaining adequate stock levels, forcing them to prioritize critical treatments over elective ones.
