Sangini Injection Brochure
CRS in Nepal piloted injectable contraceptives through pharmacies in the Kathmandu Valley in 1994, under the local brand name Sangini-Tin Mahiney Sui (Sangini three-month injection).

Sangini was introduced through 50 trained and certified service providers at Rs. 40, including service charges.
