Warning ! Banned Drugs


Hello friends,

Partha Sengupta has sent this valuable guide of banned drugs.Thanks Partha
I am sure, your will keep a record of these drugs and the next time your doctor tries to prescribe them, you can give a wrap on his hands.
By the way, could our doctor friends advise what is an alternative drug to enteroquinol for diarrhoea? Many a time I have not waited for the doctor's prescription and taken the drug myself.
In fact all our readers would appreciate if you could give the names of alternate drugs of all the banned drugs.

MEDICINES BANNED
OUTSIDE INDIA !
BUT AVAILABLE IN INDIA!

Hi

Please Read Very Carefully - INFORM ALL YOUR FRIENDS & FAMILY MEMBERS.

India has become a dumping ground for banned drugs; also the business for production of banned drugs is booming. Plz make sure that u buy drugs only if prescribed by a doctor (Also, ask which company manufactures it, this would help to ensure that u get what is prescribed at the Drug Store) and that also from a reputed drug store. Not many people know about these banned drugs and consume them causing a lot of damage to themselves. We forward Jokes and other junk all the time. This is far more important.

Please Make sure u forward it everyone u know
