Pharma companies and Medical Representatives (MRs) can only distribute sample packs that strictly adhere to the prescribed dosage for a maximum of three patients during the requisite treatment period, the recent pharma code issued by the government has stated.

The UCPMP 2024, introduced on March 12th 2024, aims to overhaul existing marketing practices by imposing strict guidelines on pharmaceutical companies and healthcare practitioners.
