Failing quality standards
NEW DELHI: The Central Drugs Standard Control Organisation (CDSCO) has listed at least 135 drugs and formulations as not of standard quality (NSQ) for December last year, after both central and state testing laboratories across the country flagged these samples, according to the drugs regulator's alert issued on Friday.
Data accessed by HT for the entire 2024 showed that at least 858 samples were labelled as NSQ by the national drugs regulator while 19 samples were found to be spurious. NSQ drugs are those that fail to meet the quality standards or specifications, including those pertaining to labelling, dissolution, weight uniformity, and sterility.
According to a release issued by CDSCO, of the 135 samples that failed quality test, 84 were identified by various state drugs testing laboratories, while the central drugs laboratories have identified 51 samples.
