CDSCO Flags Spurious Drugs, Many Fail Quality Standards

CDSCO Flags Spurious Drugs, Many Fail Quality Standards

The government checks medicines to make sure they are safe and work.

In August, they found some fake and low-quality drugs.

Three drugs were found to be fake, meaning made by the wrong companies.

These included medicines for stomach problems and anxiety.

Also, 94 other drugs didn't meet quality standards.

This means they might not work as well as they should.

The government is now investigating and will take action to keep people safe.
