During the drive, Statutory Drug samples of nearly Hundred pharmaceutical preparations were lifted from supply chain (Retailers as well as Wholesalers) for determination of strength and purity. These samples were referred to Drug Testing Laboratories for framing legal opinion to ascertain their quality parameters.
Moreover, procurement records of pharmaceutical preparations were put on scrutiny to ensure that drug formulations are being purchased from regulated channels only.
The Pharma Trade Fraternity was impressed upon to ensure that the drugs shall only be procured from the authorized stockist through regulated channels, to ensure that spurious /not of standard quality drugs don’t find entry in the market through unscrupulous /clandestine channels.

Moreover, Acting swiftly on the inputs that a Pradhan Mantri Bhartiya Jan Aushadi Kendra being run inside a prominent Public Institution in Jammu City is selling some pharmaceutical preparations other than that of Pharmaceuticals and Medical Devices Bureau of India (PMBI), immediate action was taken and operations of the Kendra were disallowed to give a loud and clear message to all Jan Aushdhi kendras, that they would not be allowed to defeat the noble cause of this pro public and pro patent initiative of providing Jan Aushadi medicines at affordable prices to the general public.
Operations of a Pradhan Mantri Bhartiya Jan Aushadi Kendra have also been disallowed as the said Kendra was found to be indulged in sale of drug formulations other than the permitted ones. |
