In a major measure of relief to cardiac patients in India, the government on Tuesday fixed the ceiling price of coronary stents which are used to open up blocked arteries. The National Pharmaceutical Pricing Authority, in a notification, put a ceiling price on drug eluting stents (DES) and bioresorbable stents at Rs 29,600, and that of bare metal stents at Rs 7,260, effective from Tuesday.
