Special Assistant to the Prime Minister on National Health Services, Regulation and Coordination Dr Zafar Mirza had directed the DRAP teams to continue crackdown against pharmaceutical companies for unauthorized increase in the prices of their medicines. There was a clear direction to take strict action against overpricing and start active surveillance besides seizing the medicines in case of overpricing.

The crackdown would continue against those companies who were not selling medicine on approved prices (UrduPoint, 15 Dec 2019).
