India's Drug Regulator Warns Against Two Unregistered Pakistani Cosmetic Products

India's Drug Regulator Warns Against Two Unregistered Pakistani Cosmetic ProductsPreviousNext

India's drug regulator, the Central Drugs Standard Control Organisation (CDSCO), has issued a public health warning against two Pakistani-made cosmetic products, Goree Beauty Cream and Chandni Whitening Cream. Tests found these creams contain heavy metals exceeding permissible limits and lack required import registration certificates. The CDSCO has advised consumers to avoid these products and directed authorities to prevent their sale. This action follows broader enforcement efforts against unregistered imported cosmetics in India to ensure consumer safety.
