00:00Opening the capsule
00:09So...
00:10Opening...
00:12Opening...
00:23There were nails in the capsule
00:27Fuck
00:29This is Vicks Action 500
00:31I bought it from a store
00:33And the other one from a pharmacy
00:36Surprisingly, there is a lot of difference in both
00:39So I was in a confusion
00:42Which one is the real one
00:44And which one is the fake one
00:46Both look similar
00:48But they are not
00:50So let's see what is the difference
00:52Between the original Vicks Action 500
00:55And the duplicate one
00:57On one of the Vicks Action 500
01:01It is written that it is made by Procter & Gamble
01:06But it is not written here
01:09And surprisingly
01:11One is manufactured in 05-17
01:14And expiry is 10-18
01:17The other one is manufactured in 2017
01:21But it expires in 2019
01:23There is a major color difference in the packing
01:25There is a strip here
01:27You can see that there is a strip here
01:30So it goes down here
01:32Which is missing here
01:34It is missing here
01:36There is something written in the red block
01:38There is something written here
01:40And which is missing here
01:42And...
01:44The quality is very different
01:47I am trying to cut this thing from here
01:49I am trying to cut the medicine
01:51It will be cut only with scissors
01:54And...
01:59When I take this thing out
02:01The color of the medicine is blue
02:03Now when this thing is there
02:05It opens by hand
02:07When we take it out
02:09The color of the medicine is yellow
02:11So there is a difference in the color of the medicine
02:13Ok
02:15I have taken both the medicines
02:17I have taken the duplicate one
02:19I have taken the original one
02:21I am alive
02:23One thing is that you don't die by eating this
02:25But when I had this particular one
02:27I had abdominal pain
02:29I had abdominal pain
02:31And...
02:33Then I ate one more
02:35Then I had one more
02:37And I also had abdominal pain
02:39So the original one
02:41This is the second strip
02:43I used the first strip
02:45And I got a lot of relief from it
02:47I don't know how many such medicines are in the market
02:49This is just a small example
02:51So I think it's time
02:53The Minister of Health and Family Welfare
02:55Does something about this
03:19Some medicine companies
03:21Are playing with your health
03:23Hundreds of such medicines
03:25Are being sold in the market
03:27Which are either harmful
03:29Or completely ineffective
03:31For your health
03:33The central government
03:35Has taken a positive step
03:37This is the right step
03:39In the right direction
03:41Because all the medicines
03:43That have been banned
03:45Had a lot of irrational combinations
03:47So banning them
03:49Is the right step
03:51Under Section 26A of the
03:53Drugs and Cosmetics Act 1940
03:55The central government has imposed
03:57Restrictions on the right to
03:59Sell and distribute medicines
04:01In the country
04:03In 2014, the government
04:05Formed an expert committee
04:07This committee examined
04:09Approximately 6,000 special combinations
04:11Of medicines sold in the Indian market
04:13A list of medicines was made
04:15Approximately 344 medicines
04:17Were banned
04:19Among these 344 medicines
04:21Wix Action 500 Extra
04:23Nemusilide and Corex are also included
04:25On which the government has imposed
04:27Restrictions
04:29The government has banned
04:31Fixed dose combination medicines
04:33Which are either ineffective
04:35Or harmful
04:37From antibiotics
04:39To painkillers
04:41To anti-allergic medicines
04:43There are a lot of combinations
04:45Of which 2-3 molecules
04:47Chemicals
04:49Are combined in one medicine
04:51Of which there is no
04:53International rationale
04:55In any western country
04:57In any foreign country
04:59You will not find such combinations
05:03After the government imposed restrictions
05:05Some pharmaceutical companies
05:07Stopped the production and sale
05:09Of medicines that were
05:11Prohibited
05:13But against the government's decision
05:15Some pharmaceutical companies
05:17Appealed to the Delhi High Court
05:19On such an appeal
05:21The court has imposed
05:23Restrictions on Corex
05:25The decision of the Ministry of Health
05:27Will have a positive effect on your health
05:29But the decision of the pharmaceutical companies
05:31Is harmful
05:33The Zangajat Pharma Retail Market
05:35Will face a loss of 4%
05:37Which is equivalent to
05:391% of the market
05:41According to the market research agency
05:43The American company Abbott
05:45Will face a loss of Rs 485 Crore
05:47Whereas, McLeod Pharma
05:49Will face a loss of Rs 370 Crore
05:51And Pfizer
05:53Will face a loss of Rs 368 Crore
05:55The government has imposed restrictions
05:57On the medicines
05:59The experts' team also believe
06:01The use of those medicines
06:03Is dangerous for us
06:05The government has also said
06:07The medicines that have been banned are available in the market.
06:14Pay attention to the language.
06:17Just watch the video.
06:19But even if you go to the doctor,
06:21the medicine that is prescribed,
06:23if you can drink it,
06:26if you can eat it,
06:28but if that medicine is also duplicated, what can you do?
06:31Similarly, look at this one medicine.
06:34How big is it?
06:36Half a meter.
06:38There is half a meter of pulp in it.
06:41But if such medicines are given,
06:44this half a meter of pulp,
06:46see for yourself.
06:48What happens to this pulp if we go into our stomach?
06:52See.
06:54This kind of pulp.
06:57Look at this medicine.
07:00See, I will open it again and show you.
07:02This medicine.
07:04See, it is opening in front of you.
07:07In the first medicine,
07:09see how long it is.
07:12Now look at this medicine.
07:14Continue, half a meter of pulp.
07:17What happens if it goes into the stomach of a human?
07:20With this kind of pulp.
07:23So, we have to think about it.
07:25What do we eat?
07:28Meat is also duplicated.
07:30If we eat meat, it is also duplicated.
07:32Eggs are also duplicated.
07:34Life itself is duplicated.
07:36But please everyone,
07:38when you buy medicine,
07:40if you go to the pharmacy,
07:42if you have any doubt,
07:44open it and see.
07:46See how long it is.
07:48It is just pulp.
07:50What goes into our body?
07:52See this medicine.
07:54It is just pulp.
07:56It is just pulp.
07:58It is just pulp.
08:00Please everyone,
08:02share this video and see.
