Chennai Pharma Company To Suspend Eye Drops Manufacturing After FDA Flags Bacterial Contamination -- aaa
Global Pharma Healthcare, the drug manufacturer at the centre of the controversy, has said it's working closely with the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
After a Chennai-based pharmaceutical company was flagged by US authorities over lethal contamination in the eye drops, members of Tamil Nadu's Drug Controller and Central Drug Control Authority conducted a late-night inspection of manufacturing premises of Global Pharma Healthcare Private Limited, sources said.
The Central Drugs Standard Control Organisation (CDSCO) has suspended the manufacturing of eye drops and initiated its probe after the United States' Food and Drug Administration (FDA) allegedly linked 55 adverse events cases with contaminated eye drops, sources said ANI on Saturday adding that the investigating agencies in both the countries are constantly investigating the matter since the previous day.
