(Corrects to say price caps extended to 2 drugs rather than 39 in the headline, 1st and 2nd paragraph, corrects to say more than 500 drugs listed in the price control list in 2nd and 4th paragaphs)
MUMBAI (Reuters) - India has extended price caps to two commonly used antibiotics, in the government's latest effort to improve affordability of medicines.
A notice posted on the National Pharmaceutical Pricing Authority (NPPA) website late on Wednesday detailed the two antibiotics, which extend a price control list that already includes more than 500 medicines.
