Udupi district administration bans sale of paracetamol without doctor's prescription
Udupi: The Udupi District Administration has issued a strict directive to pharmacies, instructing them not to sell paracetamol and other antibiotic medicines without a doctor's prescription.
This comes amid rising cases of dengue and other infectious diseases in the district. Self-medication by patients has led to concerns about misdiagnosis and inadequate treatment, which could result in serious health risks, including death.
As a precautionary measure, the Assistant Drug Controller of Udupi stated in a release that all drug dealers in the district are prohibited from selling paracetamol and antibiotic drugs without a doctor's prescription.

Trump says he ‘hasn’t even thought about’ continuing Iran ceasefire
Washington: US President Donald Trump has said he has not yet considered whether he would continue the ceasefire involving Iran, while also claiming the United States holds the advantage in negotiations.
Speaking to reporters, Trump said he was prepared to make a deal with “whoever is running the show” in Iran.
“They are fighting with each other, there’s tremendous infighting. They’re probably fighting for leadership in many cases. I think they’re fighting not to be leader because we knocked out two levels of leaders,” he said.
Trump added, “When they want they can call me. We have all the cards, we’ve won everything.”
Referring to ongoing negotiations, he said, “They gave us a paper that should’ve been better. And, interestingly, immediately when I cancelled it [envoy trip to Pakistan], within 10 minutes we got a new paper that was much better.”
“We talked about they will not have a nuclear weapon, very simple … They offered a lot, but not enough,” he added.
When asked whether he would continue the ceasefire, Trump replied, “I haven’t even thought about it.”
The remarks come as uncertainty remains over the future of the temporary truce and broader negotiations between Washington and Tehran.
