Spurious drugs, worth about ₹1 crore supplied to A.P.

Officials of the Drug Control Administration (DCA) have identified that spurious drugs, worth more than ₹1 crore, were imported to Andhra Pradesh, in the last few months.

The drugs, which were harmful to humans, were in the market in Visakhapatnam, Tirupati, Kadapa, Vijayawada and other cities in the State. 

After the DCA officials identified the supply of spurious drugs to the wholesale and retailers to different parts of the State, teams of drug inspectors swung into action, verified the batches, and recovered the stocks from the drug stores.
