Medicines - Consumer  Protection Thereof

Sometimes consumers are ignorant about the same.  It is to be noted that side effects of those medicines can create different problems in one body. 

                                         Besides that, some medicines could contain chemicals that can lead to very dangerous diseases like Cancer. However, there are some NGOs whose scientists are doing research and warning the people if there is anything wrong with any specific medicine. 



                                        ' Valisure' is one such American organization that is doing such work in the best interest of the public. It detected cancer-causing chemicals in widely used medications like Hand Sanitizers, Sunscreen Perspirantbody Sprays, Dry Shampoos, and Acne Treatments. Sometimes such research leads to several suits and even recall of the concerned product. It is also reported that the majority of Americans do believe that the products they buy are safe, tasted, and harmless.

                                        In the year 2021 'Valisure' found Benzene in Suncare products in 29 Brands and year 2022 it tested 148 Products and found Benzene in 60% Batches of  Dryshampo. It is already reported that benzenes lead to grave diseases.



                                     Drug Testing Authorities and Trade Groups sometimes treat the findings of NGOs like 'Valisure' as not based on science and it leads to scare people and has a nuisance value. While research scientists consider their research as a powerful instrument to protect consumers.
