The Central Drugs Standard Control Organization (CDSCO) has identified over 50 drugs that have failed quality tests, marking a significant concern for public health. In its latest report, the agency revealed that 50 drugs, including the widely used pain reliever Paracetamol, have been classified as “not of standard quality” (NSQ). Other drugs flagged include calcium and vitamin D3 supplements, anti-diabetes medications, and treatments for high blood pressure.

Among the specific quality concerns, Paracetamol tablets produced by Karnataka Antibiotics & Pharmaceuticals Ltd were highlighted. The report detailed a total of 48 drugs listed in the NSQ category, which also includes a Gauze Roll Non-Sterile Roller Bandage.
The alerts regarding NSQ drugs stem from monthly random sampling conducted by state drug officers. Notably, some of the implicated medicines were manufactured by reputable companies, including Hetero Drugs, Alkem Laboratories, Hindustan Antibiotics Limited (HAL), and Meg Lifesciences, raising concerns about quality control in the pharmaceutical industry.

In addition to the 50 drugs listed, the CDSCO also released a supplementary list of five additional drugs that failed quality tests. Pharmaceutical companies have denied responsibility for these drugs, claiming they are “spurious.” One manufacturer stated, “The actual manufacturer (as per label claim) has informed that the impugned batch of the product has not been manufactured by them and that it is a spurious drug. The product is purported to be spurious; however, the same is subjected to the outcome of investigation.”

Among the drugs that did not meet the required standards are:
