&lt;em&gt;Mumbai: &lt;/em&gt;Doctors in Maharashtra will now have to mention generic names of medicines as against prescribing only a certain brand, giving patients a choice.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With a generic prescription, patients can go in for low-cost options for the same medicine.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The state government, in a statement yesterday, said as per a decision of the state medical council under clause 1.5 of the Indian Medical Council Regulations, doctors should prescribe drugs with generic names &amp;ldquo;written legibly and preferably in capital letters&amp;ldquo;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
They shall also &amp;ldquo;ensure that there is a rational prescription and use of drugs&amp;rdquo;, the statement said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dr Dilip Wange, registrar of the Maharashtra Medical Council, confirmed the development. &amp;ldquo;For any doctor found violating this, disciplinary action would be taken by the state medical council,&amp;rdquo; he said. &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
With a generic prescription, patients can go in for low-cost options for the same medicine.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The state government, in a statement yesterday, said as per a decision of the state medical council under clause 1.5 of the Indian Medical Council Regulations, doctors should prescribe drugs with generic names &amp;ldquo;written legibly and preferably in capital letters&amp;ldquo;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
They shall also &amp;ldquo;ensure that there is a rational prescription and use of drugs&amp;rdquo;, the statement said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dr Dilip Wange, registrar of the Maharashtra Medical Council, confirmed the development. &amp;ldquo;For any doctor found violating this, disciplinary action would be taken by the state medical council,&amp;rdquo; he said. &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
With a generic prescription, patients can go in for low-cost options for the same medicine.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The state government, in a statement yesterday, said as per a decision of the state medical council under clause 1.5 of the Indian Medical Council Regulations, doctors should prescribe drugs with generic names &amp;ldquo;written legibly and preferably in capital letters&amp;ldquo;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
They shall also &amp;ldquo;ensure that there is a rational prescription and use of drugs&amp;rdquo;, the statement said.&lt;br /&gt;

Dr Dilip Wange, registrar of the Maharashtra Medical Council, confirmed the development. &amp;ldquo;For any doctor found violating this, disciplinary action would be taken by the state medical council,&amp;rdquo; he said. &lt;br /&gt;
