Medical Stores Managing Director Dr. Bonface Fundafunda says the Kit Yamoyo diarrhoea kit was now available for distribution to all corners of the country. Kit Yamoyo contains oral rehydration salt (ORS) and zinc creatively packaged in a flimsy plastic container which also serves as a measuring and storage device.

Dr. Fundafunda said this during the signing of a memorandum of understanding between Medical Stores and Keepers Zambia in Lusaka yesterday. Under the MoU, MSL will distribute the GRZ branded diarrhoea kits throughout Zambia using the public sector medical supply chain. KZF, ColaLife, Pharmanova and other partners embarked on promoting the new diarrhoea kit in 2012 initially on trial. Kit Yamoyo is now on the GRZ essential drugs list.
