Key legal question
Whether the appellants had standing to bring a constitutional complaint against § 33 of the cantonal health ordinance.
Extracted holding
They lacked standing because the provision did not directly or virtually affect their own legally protected interests.
Extracted reasoning
§ 33 regulated physicians and dentists, not pharmacists. The pharmacists could not rely on competition equality, since there was no direct competition. The KVG provision invoked was too vague to serve as a protective norm under Art. 88 OG, and the HMG left the matter to the cantons.
