essential antibiotic has come to the
fore in Kashmir. It has been found
that patients at state-run hospitals
and health centres in the valley
have been receiving fake
amoxicillin tablets sold
commercially as Maximizin 625.
The scam came to light after a drug
inspector subjected the tablet to a
lab test only to discover that the
drug contained NO amoxicillin,
thereby turning it not just
spurious, but dangerous too. The
damage caused by the drug is said
to be huge since as many as 7 Lakh
tablets have been supplied to
various Govt hospitals. An FIR has
been filed against both the pharma
firm as well as the distributor.
