KARACHI: People should register their misgivings about the quality and cost of medicines in their use with the Drug Regulatory Authority of Pakistan (Drap), its CEO Dr Muhammad Aslam advised on Tuesday evening. Talking to journalists during a reception, he said that aggrieved consumers could send their complaints via email to ceodrappak@gmail.com. Dr Aslam added that requests submitted by pharmaceutical manufacturers to Drap seeking to raise the price of their products will be settled within 90 days. “If Drap cannot address the request in 90 days, bonafide companies can increase the cost by eight per cent.” He clarified that all medicines must be within the purchasing capacity of the people without any compromise on quality.

Amna sajjad | 9 years ago | Reply the Australian government initiative for providing the aid $24m to Pakistan is a good step indeed and they have been appreciating Pakistan efforts against counter terror. but the question is whether we will spend this enormous amount on Pakistans development or we still face the miserable conditions here ? although Pakistan has been going good as far as economic system is concerned but still we need to spend this amount specially on education but lets hope for a better future
