The Central Drugs Standard Control Organisation (CDSCO) has issued an advisory circular addressed to healthcare professionals, pharmacies, retailers, distributors, and hospitals regarding the indiscriminate use of painkillers, specifically Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs), and antibiotics. The circular highlights the severe medical risks associated with the unregulated and over-the-counter consumption of these medicines, explicitly linking their unchecked use to the development and acceleration of Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD).
