Fake Oxytocin In Kota: Repeat Offender Firm Exploits Loophole To Sell Drugs | Fake Drugs Exposed

An India Today investigation reveals that the fake oxytocin injections administered to mothers in Kota, Rajasthan, were manufactured by a repeat offender. Jackson Laboratories, the Amritsar-based company responsible for the vials that allegedly contained only water, has been previously blacklisted in five states, including Punjab, Odisha, Tamil Nadu, Jammu and Kashmir, and Karnataka. The report exposes a critical loophole in the Drugs and Cosmetics Act, which lacks a central database for blacklisted pharmaceutical companies, allowing them to continue operating and selling drugs in other states. While the Rajasthan government has cancelled the company's licenses following the maternal deaths, the drug manufacturer has denied responsibility, attributing the casualties to sepsis and multi-organ failure while citing cold chain breakage. The incident mirrors previous tragedies involving contaminated cough syrups, raising urgent questions about the systemic failure of healthcare infrastructure and the need for stricter regulations to prevent blacklisted pharmaceutical companies from re-entering the market. #FakeOxytocin #KotaMaternalDeaths #JacksonLaboratories #itwebvideos #RajasthanHealth #DrugsAndCosmeticsAct #MedicalNegligence #IndiaToday #HealthcareSystem #FakeMedicines #MaternalHealth #DrugRegulations #PharmaCompanies #KotaHospitals #PatientSafety #HealthcareInfrastructure #DrugSafety Subscribe to India Today for NEW VIDEOS EVERY DAY and make sure to enable Push Notifications so you'll never miss a new video.
