The reflections concern the geographic location of pharmaceutical supply centers and the logistics involving the medicine, from receipt to access. Special focus was given to items received by donation, addressing the issue of free samples, me-too medicines, fixed-dose combinations and the importance of essential medicines and disaster lists. The article also suggests that pharmaceutical services assessment instruments consider climate risks; the use of information technology to optimize logistics; and the relaxation of medication dispensing standards during a state of public calamity.

Subsequently, we present how they appear at different levels and propose implications and challenges on OHS policies in order to mediate the identified contradictions.
