Mauritius’ antitrust agency is investigating potential price fixing and collusion in its pharmaceutical sector.

Importers and wholesalers that sell pharmaceutical products to retail pharmacies are suspected to have “illegally agreed to fix the wholesale markup” on goods, the Port Louis-based commission said in an emailed statement on Monday. The products are price controlled and their maximum markup is fixed by regulations.
