New Delhi: The Delhi High Court yesterday ordered a ban on sale of online medicines by e-pharmacists across the country and directed the Centre and the Delhi Government to immediately implement the order.
A Bench of Chief Justice Rajendra Menon and Justice V.K. Rao passed the order while acting on a PIL filed by Delhi-based dermatologist Zaheer Ahmed who complained that lakhs of medicines were being sold on the internet every day without much regulation, posing a huge risk to patients and doctors alike.
