How Much of Indian Medicine is Bad?

Sources of Truth:

Organization Sub-Heading Estimate 
WHO  10% 
CDSCO Government Sources ~10% 
CDSCO Private Sources ~3 
ASSOCHAM1 25% 
ASPA Distributors Survey 10%-20%

Fake drug percentage reports

Strengths and Weaknesses 

WHO’s Estimates are Questionable!

Conclusion 

  1. This report has been cited by multiple reputable news bodies, but the copy of the report cannot be found.
  2. https://www.who.int/teams/regulation-prequalification/incidents-and-SF/full-list-of-who-medical-product-alerts
  3. The paper has been removed.

  5. No, its impossible. Dinesh Thakur is a foreign agent meant to dismantle India’s pharmaceutical industry. He would bias the results. In case you cannot tell, I am being sarcastic.
  6. There is a secondary issue, that I haven’t presented due to it paling in significance to this one. Inherent, unchangeable Design Flaw (illicit sale of pharmaceutical sources would not be present in the original source sheet presented to drug inspectors.)
  7. Yes, India does not have proper drug recall.

  9. Sholay!
  10. I’d really like to see this survey data. This body doesn’t have close to the resources of the government, but I’m impressed they did as much as they did.
