A call for a deal to be struck to allow cystic fibrosis sufferers across Scotland access to ‘life-saving drug’ Orkambi through the NHS has been made by Lochaber MP Ian Blackford.
It is now more than 1,000 days since Orkambi was licensed throughout the United Kingdom.
However, provider Vertex Pharmaceuticals has so far priced the Scottish NHS out of making the drug readily available.
