Rajasthan Cracks Down On Fake Medicines; 290 Samples Fail, Officer Suspended | India Today

Описание: The Rajasthan government is set to probe all fake medicine samples in the state within 15 days, a significant action following a media report. An officer who was in charge of the investigation has been suspended, with the inaction being considered prima facie intentional. A subsequent check revealed that 290 samples, including for life-threatening drugs, had failed quality tests over the past year with no action being taken. The state's drug controller called the situation shocking and is taking the matter very seriously. Drug inspectors are now being sent to other states to investigate the factories where the medicines are manufactured. The issue involves generic medicines being supplied without their core active ingredient, or 'salt'. As a speaker in the report stated, "For example, if you are taking an acidity medicine, there is no salt in it." #rajasthan #fakemedicines #health #itwebvideos #publichealth #drugsafety #investigation #spuriousdrugs #genericmeds #healthscam #rajasthannews #healthcare #consumeralert #medicine
