Two Nigerians, Nduka Ogbonna Fidelis and Vincent Emmanuel are in the grips of the Accra Regional Police, for allegedly importing, distributing and selling fake Vermox and Postinor 2 tablets on the Ghanaian market. The two according to the Food and Drugs Authority, its investigations revealed that the fake medicines were smuggled into the Ghana from Nigeria by road. Vermox tablets are indicated for treatment of worm infestations whereas Postinor 2 is an oral emergency contraceptive. The FDA in a release, cautioned "the public to note that the fake Vermox has a batch number of 9CL2400 with a manufacturing date of 09/2013 and expiry date of 08/2017". "The general public, especially pharmacies, licensed chemical shops, hospitals, clinics and other healthcare facilities are hereby cautioned against buying medicines from drug peddlers and other dubious sources. "Medicines purchased from these sources are not only fake but are also transported and stored under improper conditions, which could result in their deterioration well before their stated expiry thus putting the health of consumers of such medicines at risk." http://www.citifmonline.com/index.php?id=1.1595737 |
