Are Physicians Permitted to Sell Medicines? Here’s What the Law and Code of Conduct Say The Drugs Act, 2035 (1978) and the Drug Registration Regulations, 2038 (1981) stipulate that medicines cannot be sold or distributed without proper registration, certification, and the availability of necessary human resources and infrastructure. Patients visit physicians for medical treatment. The physician examines the patient, diagnoses the illness, and prescribes the necessary medication; the patient then proceeds to a pharmacy to purchase it. However, in some instances, medicines are provided to patients directly from the physician’s own clinic or health institution. This gives rise to a significant question: are physicians permitted to sell medicines? This issue extends beyond a mere matter of professional jurisdiction between physicians and pharmacists. It encompasses concerns regarding the safe use of medicines, a patient’s right to choose , conflicts of interest , the pricing and quali...

How does fiber make the stomach feel 'light'?

How does fiber make the stomach feel 'light'? Fiber is a type of carbohydrate—existing in both soluble and insoluble forms—that can help alleviate constipation and promote regular bowel movements. Fiber is a carbohydrate that our digestive system cannot fully digest; consequently, it mostly passes through the digestive tract and is eliminated from the body. This characteristic allows fiber to play a crucial role in the health of the stomach and intestines. There are two types of fiber: soluble and insoluble. Soluble fiber mixes with water to form a gel-like substance. It can help slow down digestion, regulate blood sugar levels , and assist in managing cholesterol. Foods such as oats , barley, apples, oranges, beans, and peas contain soluble fiber. Insoluble fiber, on the other hand, does not dissolve in water. It adds bulk to the stool and helps it move smoothly through the intestines. Wheat bran , whole grains, certain vegetables, fruit skins, and nuts contain this type of...

The condition in which blood pressure drops and dizziness occurs when you stand up suddenly after sitting in the sun for a long time is called 'orthostatic hypotension'. In summer, sweating and dehydration can reduce the blood supply to the brain, causing a person to lose their physical balance. To avoid such problems, it is necessary to drink enough water, avoid sitting in too much heat, and get up slowly from a sitting position.
