Investigate and amend laws on selling generic drugs as expensive brands.
Many pharmaceutical companies sell medications which are available as generics for extortionate prices. One example of this is Ibruprofen, which is still sold under different brands for many times the price.
You can purchase Ibruprofen 200mg tablets x 16 at a supermarket for 0.16p. You can purchase Nurofen from the same supermarket, same dosage and quantity for in excess of £2.00. Nurofen is the same medicine as Ibruprofen but marketed under a different brand.
You can't sign this petition because it is now closed. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
