Substandard |
Substandard medicines are products of which the composition and ingredients do not meet the correct scientific specifications and that are consequently ineffective and often dangerous to the patient. Substandard products may occur as a result of negligence, human error, insufficient human and financial resources or counterfeiting. |
A substandard drug is defined as a registered product of which the specifications are out of defined pharmacopoeias or accepted standards. |
A substandard drug is termed in this law as a “non-standard” drug, and is defined as any modern or traditional medicine, the composition of which is inconsistent with the drug’s registered formula. |
