Approved alternatives, medicine

The Danish Maritime Authority and Radio Medical have prepared a list of possible substitute medications that can be used if it is impossible to obtain the correct medicines. It should be emphasized that the use of the substitute medications on this list is only a temporary solution—correct medications should be purchased as soon as the opportunity arises.

The list is available for download in Excel format, including a user guide and labels for the medications.
If it is not possible to obtain medicines as specified in the medical chest or from the above-mentioned list, contact must be made with the Centre for Maritime Health Service (CMS).

For further questions, please contact CMS.
