FOR YOUR INFORMATION AND ACTION Pls Read Very Carefully

Nigeria has become a dumping ground for banned drugs ; also the business for
production of banned drugs is blooming. Plz make sure that u buy drugs only
if prescribed by a doctor(Also, ask which company manufactures it, this
would help to ensure that u get what is prescribed at the Drug Store) and
that also from a reputed drug store. Not many people know about these
banned drugs and consume them causing a lot of damage to themselves.


Plz Make sure u forward it everyone u know.

Nimesulide is still used and is very popular in the European Union. Analgin is one of the most used painkillers globally, due to its immense popularity in big countries like China, India, Brazil and Russia. Russians alone consume several hundreds of millions Analgin pills every year. And, by the way, Droperidol is not an antidepressant.

The footnote is that the big Pharmaceutical industry wants to promote their new, patented and expensive products, and to make place for them, the old drugs must go.
