The Central Drug Standards Control Organization (CDSCO) has flagged select batches of four drugs as spurious and listed 49 drugs and formulations as not of standard quality. 

The CDSCO found that four medicines were being made by fake companies that were spurious drugs, while 49 drugs were found to have failed the quality tests. The 49 drugs failed the test out of a list of 3,000 drugs and have been recalled batch wise by CDSCO. 

This is vigilant monthly action by CSDCO brings down the percentage of non-standard quality drugs down to 1 percent. 

Some of the samples that were found not to be of standard quality were those of metronidazole tablets I.P. 400 mg manufactured by Hindustan Antibiotics Ltd and used for treating infections; oxytocin injection I.P. 5 IU/1 ml manufactured by Pushkar Pharma, a synthetic hormone that helps speed up delivery or controls bleeding after childbirth; metformin hydrochloride 500 mg, manufactured by Swiss Biotech Parenterals that helps to control the amount of glucose (sugar) in blood; diclofenac sodium tablets manufactured by Hindustan Antibiotics Ltd and used as a painkiller; nimesulide and paracetamol tablets by Innova Captab Limited, pantoprazole gastro-resistant tablets by Alkem Health, cefpodoxime tablets by Aristo Pharmaceuticals Pvt.
