A batch of 95 drug samples produced in Himachal Pradesh has been found non‑compliant with quality standards after testing by authorities.
State health authorities in Himachal Pradesh announced that 95 drug samples manufactured in the state failed to meet required quality standards during routine testing.
The samples, which were part of a routine audit of local pharmaceutical production, were found to contain impurities and did not meet potency guidelines set by regulatory bodies.
Officials said the findings will trigger a review of the manufacturing processes at the implicated facility and may lead to a recall of affected batches.
The Drug Controller General of India has been notified, and a joint investigation is expected to determine the cause of the deviation and prevent future occurrences.
Consumers are advised to check batch numbers and avoid using any medicines that may have been distributed from the affected production line.
