Not all people eat in restaurants in India. There are people who can't afford branded drugs and are forced to stop treatment.

[@FOH-with-Dr.KabirManchanda]

The correct term is Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient (API). There is a serious problem with generic drugs that the layperson cannot understand but approximately 70% of generic drugs available in India are spurious/bad quality as per the reports of CDSCO (Indian Drug Regulatory body like the USFDA in the US). What this bad generic quality does to the therapeutic effect is... if you are taking one tablet of let's say Levocetirizine from any branded product then you see its effectiveness from just one tablet only but to get the same effect from generic medicine we have to take 2 or 2.5 tablets. Yes, generic medicine is the only way forward to help people get affordable healthcare but to make this thing a reality we need to improve and regulate this market of generic products being supplied in our country. After this bringing such a law would be useful and just to let you know that this prescription guideline has always been a part of the NMC bill to only write API in capital letters on prescription but physicians rarely follow it except for physicians in AIIMS.

Also, Cipla is the company that started generic medicine in India in 1935. Do read about Cipla if you ever get some spare time as this company is a legend and hero/lifesaver of the world in the healthcare sector. Thanks for being a valued member of our country.

Two things to be regulated in India. One being the household workers, their health insurance and there should be an entity looking after them at the top via central government. Second being these doctors, they after giving donations to become doctors try to get all that expenditure on their education by charging patients hefty amount. Regulation shouldn’t be just on paper, it should be there in reality as well.

[@ashu0102]

Govt.. Should give check to these pvt.. Medical college's fee also

[@RahulSharma-oc2qd]

@@ashu0102 exactly that’s not limited to medical colleges only. Fees are exorbitant everywhere starting from schools to all the way to engineering colleges and medical colleges. But only doctors have privileges to exploit anyone who comes to them for fair amount of treatment. They are the only people in our India who have courage to squeeze out every ounce of our money and yet want celebrity kinda treatment. They are no different than those policemen who are exploiting common people by asking for bribe. At least they are being called on by everyone us that they are corrupt but as soon as you say anything to doctor, there would be 100 who would preach and count their deeds. If you are giving life to someone by sucking out every single penny in that person’s pocket then sorry for me they are no less than someone who could deny you your life if you haven’t offered them money.

Govt should fast track the work of digital health tracking of every citizen linked with Adhaar. This can track people diseases, doctors they consulted and medicines they prescribed. This would improve the current condition manifolds.

[@NiketSatapara]

I welcome this step, however, it will not make any significant changes as the game of commission will go from the doctor's lap to the medical store owner's lap, even if a doctor writes the generic name, the store owner will give the one with the highest margin. Also, the government has to ensure that the quality of drugs must be acceptable, as right now hundred of brands are making poor-quality medicines, with the highest possible margins.

[@shakeelahmed2710]

Good step by govt..... because branded and generic are same but due to prescription we go with that

Make a video on PharmD(doctor of Pharmacy)

[@ritukiran]

THESE PEOPLE SIT AT computers anyways - they have smartphones with Doctor apps - these apps ask for their registration numbers. Why not make this PAPERLESS? Doctors should have a thermal bill printing machine - where the medicine name can be printed or a code can be entered - like the penal codes of law. They enter the name of the patient, their unique ID number, and the prescription. There could be a provision to share this with your hospital or local pharmacy online - so the stocks of the prescribed medicine can be checked - whichever stock has the medicine the patient receives it. It could work very much like the rest of the online market works.

If government is confident about quality and supply of generic medicines, why not ban sales of branded pharma products in India?

[@dwaipayanpande4007]

So, Govt is shifting choice of brands from hands of Doctors to the pharmacy owners, who has no legal responsibility or obligation to patient’s health. That is very very smart.

[@jAyAntswAmi]

Other side of the story: Generic Drugs are cheaper, but Quality is not well regulated and a lot of Generic Drug production is controlled by Politicians who tend to bypass all rules and regulations. Branded drugs are expensive because of the R&D, stringent quality checks, high salary costs, marketing sales cost etc.

the main thing that empties pockets of patients are various tests. If a patient is having a certain problem, they are prescribed to do dozens of unrelated tests, as there is nexus between doctors and diagnostic centres
