NMC Yet to Receive DoP Intimation to Take Action Against 30 Doctors Accepting Pharma Freebies
New Delhi: The National Medical Commission (NMC) is yet to receive the intimation from the Department of Pharmaceutical (DoP) asking it to take action against 30 offending doctors who allegedly took pharma freebies in the form of travel and hospitality expenses from AbbVie Healthcare, a senior NMC official recently informed the Medical Dialogues team.
DoP received a complaint stating that the pharma company AbbVie provided travel tickets and hotel accommodations for extravagant pleasure trips under the guise of conferences (Aesthetics 86 Anti-Aging Medicine World Congress 2024), which took place from February 1 to 3, 2024, and from March 26 to 29, 2024, in Monaco and Paris, respectively, for 30 doctors connected to the medical aesthetics/anti-ageing products (Botox and Juvederm).
