&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;Study raises safety, efficacy concerns; call for ban of irrational formulations&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Of the 110 anti-TB (tuberculosis) Fixed Dose Combinations (FDCs) available in India, only 32 (less than 30%) have been approved by the Central Drugs Standard Control Organisation (CDSCO), the country&amp;rsquo;s drug regulator. In the case of malaria FDCs, only eight out of 20 (40%), have been approved.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
These statistics, that give rise to safety and efficacy concerns, have been brought out in a study published online in the journal Tropical Medicine and International Health by researchers from the Manipal College of Pharmaceutical Sciences.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
An FDC or combination product is a formulation with more than one active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) in a fixed ratio of doses formulated into a single dosage form.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;Proportion, sales&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Aimed at assessing the proportion and sales of unapproved FDCs of anti-tubercular, antimalarial and antiretroviral (anti-HIV/AIDS) medicines available in India, the study analysed the available FDCs for these diseases and screened them against the CDSCO database of approved FDCs.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Swapnil J. Dengale from the Department of Pharmaceutical Quality Assurance in the Manipal College of Pharmaceutical Sciences, the corresponding author of the study, told The Hindu that &amp;ldquo;an opaque regulatory framework and ambiguity over licensing powers have contributed to the problem. The rationality of unapproved FDCs should be reviewed and irrational formulations should be banned.&amp;rdquo;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;em&gt;Study raises safety, efficacy concerns; call for ban of irrational formulations&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Of the 110 anti-TB (tuberculosis) Fixed Dose Combinations (FDCs) available in India, only 32 (less than 30%) have been approved by the Central Drugs Standard Control Organisation (CDSCO), the country&amp;rsquo;s drug regulator. In the case of malaria FDCs, only eight out of 20 (40%), have been approved.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
These statistics, that give rise to safety and efficacy concerns, have been brought out in a study published online in the journal Tropical Medicine and International Health by researchers from the Manipal College of Pharmaceutical Sciences.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
An FDC or combination product is a formulation with more than one active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) in a fixed ratio of doses formulated into a single dosage form.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;Proportion, sales&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Aimed at assessing the proportion and sales of unapproved FDCs of anti-tubercular, antimalarial and antiretroviral (anti-HIV/AIDS) medicines available in India, the study analysed the available FDCs for these diseases and screened them against the CDSCO database of approved FDCs.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Swapnil J. Dengale from the Department of Pharmaceutical Quality Assurance in the Manipal College of Pharmaceutical Sciences, the corresponding author of the study, told The Hindu that &amp;ldquo;an opaque regulatory framework and ambiguity over licensing powers have contributed to the problem. The rationality of unapproved FDCs should be reviewed and irrational formulations should be banned.&amp;rdquo;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;em&gt;Study raises safety, efficacy concerns; call for ban of irrational formulations&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Of the 110 anti-TB (tuberculosis) Fixed Dose Combinations (FDCs) available in India, only 32 (less than 30%) have been approved by the Central Drugs Standard Control Organisation (CDSCO), the country&amp;rsquo;s drug regulator. In the case of malaria FDCs, only eight out of 20 (40%), have been approved.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
These statistics, that give rise to safety and efficacy concerns, have been brought out in a study published online in the journal Tropical Medicine and International Health by researchers from the Manipal College of Pharmaceutical Sciences.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
An FDC or combination product is a formulation with more than one active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) in a fixed ratio of doses formulated into a single dosage form.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;Proportion, sales&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Aimed at assessing the proportion and sales of unapproved FDCs of anti-tubercular, antimalarial and antiretroviral (anti-HIV/AIDS) medicines available in India, the study analysed the available FDCs for these diseases and screened them against the CDSCO database of approved FDCs.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Swapnil J. Dengale from the Department of Pharmaceutical Quality Assurance in the Manipal College of Pharmaceutical Sciences, the corresponding author of the study, told The Hindu that &amp;ldquo;an opaque regulatory framework and ambiguity over licensing powers have contributed to the problem. The rationality of unapproved FDCs should be reviewed and irrational formulations should be banned.&amp;rdquo;&lt;br /&gt;

<em>Study raises safety, efficacy concerns; call for ban of irrational formulations<br />
</em><br />
Of the 110 anti-TB (tuberculosis) Fixed Dose Combinations (FDCs) available in India, only 32 (less than 30%) have been approved by the Central Drugs Standard Control Organisation (CDSCO), the country&rsquo;s drug regulator. In the case of malaria FDCs, only eight out of 20 (40%), have been approved.<br />
<br />
These statistics, that give rise to safety and efficacy concerns, have been brought out in a study published online in the journal Tropical Medicine and International Health by researchers from the Manipal College of Pharmaceutical Sciences.<br />
<br />
An FDC or combination product is a formulation with more than one active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) in a fixed ratio of doses formulated into a single dosage form.<br />
<br />
<em>Proportion, sales<br />
</em><br />
Aimed at assessing the proportion and sales of unapproved FDCs of anti-tubercular, antimalarial and antiretroviral (anti-HIV/AIDS) medicines available in India, the study analysed the available FDCs for these diseases and screened them against the CDSCO database of approved FDCs.<br />

'Many combination drugs not approved by regulator' -Afshan Yasmeen

-The Hindu Study raises safety, efficacy concerns; call for ban of irrational formulations Of the 110 anti-TB (tuberculosis) Fixed Dose Combinations (FDCs) available in India, only 32 (less than 30%) have been approved by the Central Drugs Standard Control Organisation (CDSCO), the country’s drug regulator. In the case of malaria FDCs, only eight out of 20 (40%), have been approved. These statistics, that give rise to safety and efficacy concerns, have been brought out in a study published online in the journal Tropical Medicine and International Health by researchers from the Manipal College of Pharmaceutical Sciences. An FDC or combination product is a formulation with more than one active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) in a fixed ratio of doses formulated into a single dosage form. Proportion, sales Aimed at assessing the proportion and sales of unapproved FDCs of anti-tubercular, antimalarial and antiretroviral (anti-HIV/AIDS) medicines available in India, the study analysed the available FDCs for these diseases and screened them against the CDSCO database of approved FDCs. Swapnil J. Dengale from the Department of Pharmaceutical Quality Assurance in the Manipal College of Pharmaceutical Sciences, the corresponding author of the study, told The Hindu that “an opaque regulatory framework and ambiguity over licensing powers have contributed to the problem. The rationality of unapproved FDCs should be reviewed and irrational formulations should be banned.” Please click here to read more.
