The future of Internet drug enforcement comes into focus with an international anti-counterfeiting operation and multifaceted FDA efforts.
As part of its effort, the FDA purchased and analyzed several products represented online as Tamiflu (oseltamivir). An FDA press release noted: "One of the orders, which arrived in an unmarked envelope with a postmark from India, consisted of unlabeled white tablets taped between two pieces of paper. When analyzed by the FDA, the tablets were found to contain talc and acetaminophen, but none of the active ingredient oseltamivir."
On a related matter, in-Pharma Technogist.com reported "a five-day international anti-counterfeiting operation involving regulators, police and customs officials from 24 countries has resulted in the seizure of 167,000 counterfeit pills."
