India's Unseen Epidemic: Are Everyday Medicines Now Silent Killers? | India Today

An India Today investigation reveals the problem of unsafe drugs in India goes far beyond contaminated cough syrups. The report uncovers a broken safety net in drug regulation, focusing on Rajasthan, where antibiotics, painkillers, steroids, and even cardiac drugs have failed quality tests. Despite laboratories flagging dangerous batches from various pharmaceutical firms, required legal action and national recalls are not being initiated. By the time authorities act, lakhs of doses have already been sold and consumed. The investigation highlights systemic failures where reports are ignored and public safety is compromised, suggesting that for many Indians, "every pill could be a potential gamble with life." #fakedrugs #drugsafety #indiatoday #investigation #publichealth #patientsafety #rajasthan #pharmascandal #healthcare #substandardmedicine #unseenepidemic #medicinescam #antibiotics #painkillers #indianpharma
