Abstract

The aim of the study is to map regulation, production, distribution and consumption of pharmaceuticals in two South Asian countries (India and Nepal) and to understand the contexts of pharmaceuticals use in South Asia. The paper is concerned with the role of regulation and its enforcement in India and Nepal with respect to one specific regulatory requirement: Good Manufacturing Practice (the guidelines which govern the production, distribution and supply of a drug).
