Chandigarh : The Drug Controller General of India will be undertaking a massive drug testing campaign across the country to check the quality and authenticity of drugs manufactured and sold in India.
“The campaign is expected to begin in the next three or four months and is expected to take over two years to complete, Drug Controller General Dr GN Singh said here today. “Samples of drugs will be picked up at random from outlets for testing and we would also be obtaining feedback and comments from national as well as international users,” he added, while speaking to mediapersons on the sidelines of a function organised to mark the release of microbial cultures for the pharmacopoeia at the Institute of Microbial Technology (IMTECH) here today.
