The National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and

Control (NAFDAC) has canvassed for stronger synergy

between the Nigerian and Indian pharmaceutical sector.

In line with its resolve to check unethical practices, the agency

said it has sanctioned some local and foreign manufacturers

over unethical practices and post-marketing failures.

NAFDAC’s Director General, Professor Mojisola Adeyeye,

made the assertion at the India-Nigeria Pharmaceuticals and

Health Industry forum organized in Lagos.

He also said the recently collaboration with India would

provide unhindered access to medicines that are safe,

efficacious, affordable and of required quality.
