The signing ceremony between Long Châu, Sandoz and the Ho Chi Minh City Respiratory Society on April 14 marks a significant step in advancing community health. With more than 2,500 pharmacies nationwide, Long Châu acts as the first health touchpoint, helping disseminate accurate medical information and support safe antibiotic use.
