High Court of Sindh issues guidelines for the sale of medicines/drugs

In an imperitive discussion/direction while hearing a case of an Association from pharmaceutical industry, the High Court of Sindh has stated that when a policy is made with respect to drugs/medicines the most prioritize aspect to be considered is the health of the people and the business aspect could be considered on the same touchstone. The culture of earning money for the sale of medicines/drugs is always to have a very strict check and balance. It also referred to the directions issued by the Supreme Court of Pakistan in Criminal Miscellaneous Application 66 of 2006 wherein the Apex Court directed to stop business of medicines on any shop other than medical stores or pharmacies. Cepal and Co. is delighted to assist the High Court of Sindh in this case.
