It has come to the attention of the Ministry of Health that some counterfeit drugs are being sold in The Bahamas.
As a result, the Ministry together with The Bahamas Pharmacy Council has appointed a Committee chaired by the Chief Medical Officer, Dr. Merceline Dahl-Regis, to investigate allegations of the importation and distribution of counterfeit drugs by at least one pharmacy in The Bahamas.
The Committee will be assisted in its investigation by the Pan American Health Organisation (PAHO).
The Ministry advises that the Committee which has been mandated to expedite its work, will conduct investigations, make an assessment, and report to the Minister of Health with appropriate recommendations for action to address any and all adverse findings.
