Sandoz's TB Combination Drug 4D and 4D Plus Recalled Due to Inappropriate Dosage on the Strips

This information to the FDA in Maharashtra was passed on by a South Mumbai Doctor who had noticed the wrong dosage on some strips that one of his patients had bought from a pharmacy in Cumballa Hill.

The patient had come to him after falling extremely sick with bouts of vomiting as he had consumed five such strips.

Consuming drugs in wrong dosages is extremely dangerous. Not only does it render the drug ineffective, such inappropriate dosages can be one of the reasons for the TB bacterium developing great resistance to antibiotics.
