NEW DELHI: The fight between brick-and mortar chemists and online pharmacies is set to reach courts now. The All India Organisation of Chemists and Druggists (AIOCD) will approach ten High Courts in India against the central and state drug regulators for lack of action against the "illegal" operation of online pharmacies, which could compromise patient safety.
On their part, online pharmacies are gearing up for the fight in the hopes that it would clarify misconceptions about process they follow and also "expose" public safety hazards offline pharmacies pose.
The move comes even while a health ministry sub-committee is evaluating online pharmacies and their impact on health. Online pharmacies are illegal in India and the central and state drug regulators' negligence in this matter risks public health, AIOCD general secretary Suresh Gupta told ET.
