India's Drug Price Regulator to Monitor Non-Essential Medicine Costs

India's Drug Price Regulator to Monitor Non-Essential Medicine Costs

The government is watching how much the price of medicines that aren't usually controlled goes up.

Companies can only raise the price of these medicines by a little bit each year, to help people afford them.

If companies break the rules and charge too much, they will have to pay back the extra money.

The government is doing this to make sure healthcare is affordable and stop companies from making too much profit on medicine.
