This is to inform the General Public that the following products are approved for withdrawal, suspension and cancellation by NAFDAC. They are therefore no longer permitted for manufacture, importation, exportation, distribution, advertisement, sale and use within Nigeria. Please note that:

1. The Certificate of Registration of a product is said to be withdrawn when the use of the Certificate of Registration of that product is discontinued upon request of the Market Authorization Holder.

2. The Certificate of Registration of a product may be suspended when the conditions upon which the NAFDAC Registration license was issued are no longer met and the Agency is to make a determination.

3. The Certificate of Registration of a product is said to be cancelled when the NAFDAC Certificate of Registration license of that product is revoked by NAFDAC.

Interesting, virtually all malaria drugs contain this lumefantrine oh

They can only ban the company/ the brand not lumenfantrine which is the generic name for the content of malarial drug.

Adjust your title

Which kind misleading headline b dis, lumefantrine na active ingredient na

Artmether/lumenfantrin constitutes the cheapest and the most available products in Nigeria Drug market.
Watch out for the prices of antmalaria drugs skyrocketing.
What alternative have they provided.?
Soon ppl ll be dieing of common malaria

Misleading and sensational,
I will be back to elucidate

Look at number 5 very well, a particular brand of artemether and Lumefantrine by Healthline has been voluntarily withdrawn from the Nigerian market.
There is no ban on Lumefantrine.
This article is misleading

Does this mean all drugs with lumefantrine are unsafe now?

This clearly saying the following pharmaceutical have ceased doing business in Nigeria , this is self withdrawal , meaning they will no longer be responsible for it here

Unfortunately, na Yorubas and their Northern masters are the kings in road side drugs

Lumefantrine? Why

Upon all these advertisements?

Dogalmighty17:

No it's self withdrawal , they mother coys no longer operate here

Isn't this the major ingredient in making antimalaria?

they didn't ban artemeter/lumefantrine outrightly, it's just 40/240

Why is Nairaland displaying like this?

An update to the site or a bug?

What do you want Igbo people to do? This medicine were approved by nafdac for years. An ugo man doing phamarceutical business have imported lots of these and suddenly they are banned but you still want to blame the Igbo man who is probably suffering and loosing a lot of millions as a result.

Lol Dem ban lumifantrine ke...


Or u mean some brand nd not all Lumifantrine meds..

Hahahahahaha.....

NAFDAC should ban GMO products that have endangered the lives of young ones also. These malaria drugs are one too many ad very dangerous, please folks, take care of your health the natural way too and try to eat and hydrate well...

From this list, the drugs where not withdrawn for default in efficacy. That is, the drugs don't have any negative effect. But for personal reasons known by NAFDAC which could be as simple as failing to pay a registration fee..

Wondered the same thing too.

Oooh! Is it good character or bad character I should give? I thought this thing had ended, only to start again.

took my time & change layout to desktop mode lemme preview list wella😂

Timely notification.
Wider media coverage is necessary though. I bet 90% of potential consumers aren't aware

Ok. The ban is well noted.
Thank you for the notification, NAFDAC

It is Sanofi and Healthline that wish to discontinue the production/circulation of the listed products. It is not as a result of any infringement - WITHDRAWN VOLUNTARILY BY MARKET AUTHORIZATION HOLDER.
