There are a ton of products in the market for sexual well being and health. Does fssai certify such products and do they ensure there arent any banned susbstances in these products?? They dont have a drug certificate for sure. more
There is no system of certification or ensuring exclusion of harmful products pushed over the counter especially when they are paddled as non-allopathic. All goes well for the manufacturers of such concoctions who can get away with them even if consumers die of their consumption. We have only known of makers of hooch getting arrested when many consume that to their death. more
There is one thing to be noted that all these drugs are taxed by tax authorities. That means they are produced with the knowledge of the Govt.Now they are working in isolation. What is required is coordination among various Govt departments. more
Pharma companies manufacture not only the Medicines that doctors prescribe . They also manufacture items that come under food , cosmetics So each type of product manufactured comes under the respective organisation for scrutiny . What scrutiny , The staff of FSSAI are under the strong impression that there job is only to issue Licences and Pocket what ever is offered . The other job of checking the quality to which they have specified is left to us to report and then they visit . By then the product under scanner is off the shelf. Drug controller at least visits the Factories for Random check and expresses the opinion . We shouldn't make a mockery of system to handle product purity. more
