ILLEGAL MDEDICINES IN INDIA

Please read very carefully - inform all your friends and family members

India has become a dumping ground for banned drugs; also the business for production of banned drugs is booming. Please make sure that you buy drugs! Only if prescribed by a doctor (also, ask which company manufactures it, this would help to ensure that u get what is prescribed at the drug store) and that also from a reputed drug store. Not many people know about these banned drugs and consume them causing a lot of damage to themselves. This is far more important.
