Questão jurídica principal
Whether the appeal was admissible as administrative law appeal or had to be treated as constitutional complaint
Decisão extraída
The challenged decision relied formally on cantonal health law; any conflict with federal law had to be raised by constitutional complaint, not administrative law appeal.
Fundamentação extraída
The order's form and legal basis were cantonal, even if its compatibility with federal medicinal products law was disputed. The federal transitional rule preserved earlier cantonal permissions until 31 December 2006, so alleged federal-law violations fell under the supremacy complaint route.
