@businesstimesbt: NAFDAC Uncovers Warehouses Producing Fake Antibiotic Packaging Materials in Lagos The National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC) has uncovered several warehouses allegedly involved in the production of falsified cosmetics and pharmaceutical products at the Tools and Hardware Complex, Trade Fair International Market, Lagos. During an enforcement operation, the agency’s Investigation and Enforcement officers discovered large quantities of products and packaging materials, including materials bearing the branding of Augmentin and other antibiotics. The items were reportedly concealed at the location to evade detection. NAFDAC warned that the circulation of falsified antibiotics poses serious public health risks, including treatment failure, worsening infections and the development of antimicrobial resistance. The agency urged Nigerians to purchase medicines only from authorised sources and report suspected falsified products to NAFDAC as it intensifies efforts to tackle the circulation of fake medicines. 👉 Follow The Business Times Nigeria for more updates #TheBusinessTimes #NAFDAC #PharmaceuticalIndustry #PublicHealth #News
