The Maharashtra Food and Drug Administration (FDA) busted a counterfeit medication enterprise, seizing 21,600 tablets mislabeled as the antibiotic ciprofloxacin from a government hospital in Nagpur. Three people have been charged, including a Thane resident who was previously incarcerated in a related crime.

FDA officials stated that the counterfeit drug, which was obtained under a government contract last year, was recently discovered at the Indira Gandhi Government Medical College and Hospital. This hospital provides medications to state-run facilities in the district, reported PTI.
