Calcium 500 mg and Vitamin D3 tablets manufactured by Life Max Cancer Laboratories were among the drugs that failed quality test. The Central Drugs Standard Control Organisation (CDSCO) has published its monthly report for September, identifying 49 pharmaceutical products that did not meet the required quality standards out of a total of 3,000 sampled drugs.
The CDSCO also flagged four medicines, manufactured by fake companies, as spurious. The non-standard drugs have been recalled on a batch-wise basis as part of CDSCO's efforts to ensure public safety.
