Abstract

With the support of the Central Public Sector Undertakings (CPSUs) and Indian Drugs and Pharmaceuticals Limited (IDPL), the Department of Pharmaceuticals of the Ministry of Chemicals and Fertilizers launched the Pradhan Mantri Bhartiya Janaushadhi Pariyojana (PMBJP) campaign to provide the general public with high-quality medications at reasonable costs. PMBJP stores have been established to offer generic medications, which are less expensive yet have the same quality and effectiveness as more expensive branded medications. All people can purchase medications at "Jan Aushadhi Medical Store" at reasonable costs, especially the impoverished. This is done to decrease unexpected healthcare costs and increase knowledge about generic drugs among the general public. Generate demand for generic pharmaceuticals by utilising medical experts. Show people that outstanding quality does not always come at a high price by fostering knowledge and awareness. Provide all of the commonly used generic drugs that cover all therapeutic areas. The programme was created to ensure that patients have access to effective pharmaceuticals and to boost the supply of high-quality generic medications in order to expand coverage, reduce out-of-pocket medication expenditures, and revise the cost of treatment as a unit per person. Raise awareness of generic pharmaceuticals through education and publicity to guarantee that quality isn't solely connected with high prices.
