considering the fact that the cost of medicines in the overall cost of healthcare constitutes more than 60% and a large percentage of our people do not have access to affordable healthcare and heeding to the  Supreme Court directive last week on regulating prices of essential medicines,the union govt is going to bring All 348 drugs of National List of Essential Medicines to come under prize control under the DPCO.
The National List of Essential Medicines (NLEM), 2003 has been revised and now this list - the NLEM, 2011 contains 348 drugs.
