Health / 5 Tips On How To Detect Counterfeit Drugs by Greatozone(m): 9:50am On Jan 16, 2018
The deadly consequences of using counterfeit medicine are well understood to be a challenge to the integrity of public health systems round the globe, and also a threat to our individual health and welfare. As a consumer, you may not have access to most of the test equipment used by regulatory bodies to verify the identity of a drug product as discussed in our previous article “Drug Product Faking: Methods for Testing Counterfeit Drugs”. The following tips will serve as a guide to purchasing genuine drug products.
1. Visual inspection
Visual inspection as stated by World Health Organization (WHO) (1999) still remains the first step in identifying potential fake drug irrespective of the analytical methods used. This is because such observation serves as a lead to identifying fake products even in the absence of the knowledge of the physical characteristics of a genuine drug product. You are expected to examine carefully both the package and its content before purchase or use.
How to carefully examine both the package and content of a drug before purchase or use.
2. Mobile Authentication Service using Short Message Service (SMS)
Mobile Authentication Service (MAS) is one of the cutting edge technologies used to curb the menace of fake drugs. It is a technology that has put the power of identifying fake drug products in the hands of many cell phone users. MAS involves the packaging of drugs with scratch card placed on the package from the point of manufacture. When scratched, the revealed codes could be sent free of charge to 38353 (Sproxil), 38351 (Pharmasecure)etc., depending on the service the manufacturer chose. Shortly after, the sender receives a reply confirming whether the drug is genuine or fake.
3. Source
The source of the drug also determines if you are buying a fake drug or not. Filling your prescription in a reputable pharmacy greatly reduces your chances of buying fake drugs while buying from illiterate and unqualified vendors who hawk drugs in buses, motor parks and in the streets increases your chances of buying fake drugs.
4. Price
This is another way of identifying fake product. If the price is far cheaper than what is expected, then you have to think twice. However, this may not always be true especially for some products (fake innovator/generic brands) which may be sold at the same price as the genuine one.
5. Unexpected side effect
Counterfeit drugs most of the time contains inert substances other than the appropriate Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient (API). They may also contain incorrect substances, improper dosage or hazardous substances which do no elicit therapeutic effect. Unusual side effects, allergic reactions, or a worsening of medical condition after taking a medication may be a pointer to identifying a fake drug. The medication should be stopped once any of the above is noticed.
Conclusion
There are a thousand and one counterfeit, gray and substandard drugs in the market today; and the negative impacts of these drugs know no boundaries. Drugs are poisons and care must be taken to avoid fake ones. The tips discussed in this article will not only help reduce your chances of purchasing, using and suffering the untoward effects of fake drug product but will also save you some money.

You site looks good, but your header slideshow seems a little distracting. Images look shrunk....I think the height should be more than it presently is. A slideshow is supposed to be a show-case, something that captures interest, and not something that distracts.

thanks my man.

Nairaland / General / Re: FG To Ban Commercial Motorcycles Nationwide by Greatozone(m): 12:15pm On Oct 26, 2014
It is a good idea if and only if the Nigerian police will agree to recruit them. And for them to do so, the government should provide (NOT PROMISE TO PROVIDE) enough patrol van and ammunition for them before they do so. This wil help reduce crime since there wil be policemen all over the places to combat crime. It wil equally reduce the rate at which road accident occurs since the police wil always be available to stop, caution and arrest any driver that overspeeds or drives under the influnce of alcohol as we normally see when we watch American movies though I don't know if it is really obtainable in real life.

speedyboi:

Isn't it funny? grin

One major thing compromising Christianity is 'denomination'. We claim to worship one God, yet we have different denominations with different doctrines.... As if that is not enough, we see members speaking against doctrines of other denominations for whatever reasons. Smh...


What stops these 6 churches from merging together and having one service now? Smh
dey can if they want to but there might be a problem of leadership( i mean who is going to be the general overseer of the new church) because each n every one of them is the founder and general overseer of their respective churches. The sharing of money realised in the new church might also be a problem.
