NAFDAC Cautions Media, Trado-Medicine Practitioners Against Illegal Adverts

The National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC) has warned the media and traditional medicine practitioners against advertisement of unregistered products without confirmation from the agency.
The state Coordinator of the agency, Alhaji Mohammed Muazu, gave the warning in an interview with newsmen in Bauchi yesterday.
He said that the agency would not tolerate unauthorised manufacture, sale and advertisement of unregistered herbal products in any media outlet.
Muazu said any traditional medicine practitioner involved in illegal manufacturing and unauthorised advertisement would have his or her products impounded and face the full wrath of the law.
The coordinator, however, urged the media to desist from illegal advertisement of products not confirmed by the agency, as it was against the agency’s Act.
