Cipla quarrels with AIDS activists on price of drug

The AIDS Healthcare Foundation...mounted a new advocacy campaign yesterday challenging Cipla for an alleged price disparity between what the firm charges for its generic drugs in India vs. Africa. Cipla refuted the over-pricing charges in ads of its own, adding that it is “consulting our legal experts.”...
