Supreme Court Urges Price Controls on All Non-Patented Medicines

India's Supreme Court on Monday pressed the government to cap prices of all non-patented drugs and medical consumables, not just anti-cancer medicines. The bench cited margins reaching 1,000% and asked why patients should be fleeced, while the government defended higher rural margins and market competition. The case was adjourned to October 27.
