Quality-Check Crackdown: Doctors Alerted as Regulators Clamp Down on Faulty Licences

As a physician, recent regulatory action in India feels like a wake-up call. Senior officials announced that any pharma firm found submitting fake or misleading documents to obtain licences will face immediate bans under new amendments to the Central Drugs Standard Control Organisation (CDSCO) rules.

For us at the bedside, this matters: medicine quality and manufacturing compliance are fundamental to safe prescribing. I encourage my peers to stay updated — double-check manufacturer credibility and batch alerts — and to discuss these developments with patients to reinforce trust in their treatment.
