Children patients can only have 2 vials per month, total 24 per year Rare diseases are not priority question in the Government and relevant Ministry of Health BUT public pressure as well as a lot of debates and activities raised by National Alliance of Rare Diseases resulted in securing funding for rare diseases treatment through excise taxes from cigarettes!

6 Management of HAE: An emergency situation What happens in an emergency situation? HAE is usually not recognized by doctors in the Emergency Room! Adult patients who have diagnosis call and go to Dermatology hospital in Skopje to receive treatment with Ruconest and/or Berinert; Some patients live outside the capital and have to travel to Skopje in case of attack! There are situations in which the hospital doesn t have vials, and patients are left without treatment!
