Pakistan is one such country where people lose their lives due to criminal negligence of their government. The deaths caused by a cough syrup in Punjab have posed a question to the efficiency of Drug Regulatory Authority (DRA) which has a mandate to supervise all operations of drug producers and dealers in the country.
In other words, it has been established to address all components of drug manufacturing, sales and distribution. Unfortunately, however, it has never played its role to supervise the operations of drug producers and dealers in the country. If cough syrups are prepared with toxic elements then what about other medicines? The government and judiciary should take notice of spread of toxic and spurious medicines in the market.
