Govt bans 14 fixed-dose combination drugs
Advertisement
In accordance with the recommendation, "no therapeutic justification" made by the Expert Committee and the Drugs Technical Advisory Board, the Central Government recently has published a gazette notification banning the manufacture, sale, or distribution of 14 specific fixed-dose combinations (FDCs) for human use in the country.
This came in line with the inquiry carried out by the Central Government to confirm whether the fixed-dose combinations licensed prior to 1988 should be the subject matter of a notification under Section 26A of the Drugs and Cosmetics Act, of 1940.
