Online adds: The provincial government of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa on Wednesday approved imposition of ban on sale and purchase of 97 substandard life saving drugs.
According to details, the provincial government issued list of the names of 97 medicines and dispatched to all the drug inspectors.
The decision has been taken to impose ban after the reports of the Drug Testing Laboratory, which declared 97 drugs as poor quality.
However, it is pertinent to mention here that there are some drug products, which are being sold in the market despite ban.
The KP government took strict notice of the issue and directed the Drug Inspectors to take action against those traders and doctors who are involved in sale and purchase of banned drugs.
