New Delhi?: The World Health Organization has warned that cough medicine exported from India may be responsible for the death of 66 children in Gambia.
In the West African country of Gambia, 66 children who suffered from health problems died suddenly. The World Health Organization, which investigated this matter, said that ‘the medicine taken by those children may have caused their death’.
A cough and cold tonic manufactured and exported by a company called Maiden Pharmaceuticals from India has been given to the children. The World Health Organization has said that the high content of the raw materials ‘Diathline Glycosyl’ and ‘Ethylene Glycosyl’ in this medicine may be the cause of death. It is said that it may be exported to some countries other than Gambia.
