If you are feeling under the weather and thinking of popping a pill of Combiflam, DCold or Cetrizine, you may want to think again.
The Central Drug Standard Control Organisation (CDSCO) screened these drugs in March and the results were as follows:
-Combiflam was marked substandard because of ‘disintegration’
-DCold featured in the list for the same reason.
-Cetrizine was marked substandard because of ‘related substances’
Readers may note that that Combiflam is taken as a pain-killer, D Cold is used when suffering from common cold and Cetrizine is anti-allergic.
At the time of publication, the responses from the side of the three drugs were not obtained.
