shocked


Nigerians are fools.
The Nigerian Medical Association are cowards.
Nobody should call me when there is a cough epidemic.

I am not an addict,
I am not a drug abuser and I have never been one.
But I have once relied on a codeine based syrup to cure a terrible cough.

Does the government know just how many people will suffer if this drug is banned?
No one throws the bad baby with the bathwater.

Folks inhale petrol or methylated spirit, does that mean we should shutdown the refinery?
Shame on Nigeria.

Too much sense wee not kee me sha.
How old are you to be this childishhuh

Very true. There are some coughs that actually needs a substance with codeine to cure it. I remember the humble days of benelyn with codeine

.....stop spilling ignorance........there are other things that can replace codeine in manufacture of cough syrup

i think Nigeria or is it NAfDAC has just shot themselves on the foot. let's see how nigerians will survive without Emzor. grin
other pharmaceutical firms will take advantage. If I don't see Emzor, I buy M&B. but they can't close that firm!

grin grin grin grin grin grin This country is a joke. They don't need to seal the company, their effort should be on regulating the sales of the product by educating our medicine and pharmaceutical stores . I remembered going to a pharmacy shop in abroad to buy Antibiotic, they demanded I get doctor's approval. When I try to pressure the young man, he told me he can't buy any product from the company if he couldn't give them account and documents on how he sold the first supply .

It would be ridiculously Stupid to shut down a Production line just because of one corrupt staff, what about other staff's job at the production line? And genuine sick individuals who may need the so called codene. if one staff is corrupt investigate and sack him if guilty. case resolved.

The other substances that can replace codeine is as worst as codeine.
Re: Codeine: NAFDAC Closed Only One Of Our Production Lines, Emzor Reacts by HtwoOw: 7:53am On May 09, 2018
Whoever heads NAFDAC now is an Idiot

But i already know our senates shouting Coiedine up and down are a bunch of ignorant fools

Emzor is not the problem, the youths are

It's a trend, just like baggy shorts, boot cut jeans , Old school hairstyles, dread** , It will pass


Closing Emzor or banning production of Codine isn't the solution ,addicts will still find a way to get it if they have to pay through the nose , Sellers will find a way to get it , even if it means going to Cotonou


It'll get more expensive and you can expect crime rates to increase,


Note these points i made before some idiats start blaming buhari for increase in crime

Addicts finding way is not the problem. At least it won't be readily accessible. Ppl still snif cocaine abroad even in indonesia where there is death penalty for culprits... There is no absolute solution for anything in this world..

That's absolute bullshìt!

There are MANY other very potent antitussives. More potent than codeine and not even addictive. Do your research.

Shame on Nigeria.

Too much sense wee not kee me sha but will this production line have been shutdown if it was owned by a Musa, Ahmed, Yahaya or a Muhammad?

Dangote trucks have killed more Nigerians yet not one of his factory has been closed.
FRSC would have probably banned the transportation of cement by trucks and road if it was owned by an Easterner.
Where's the refinery you want to shut down
