The Ashanti Regional Office of the Food and Drugs Authority (FDA) has confiscated some products estimated to be worth GH¢700,000.
This was a result of a swoop conducted by the office in collaboration with the South Suntreso Police Command of the Ghana Police Service at Alabar in the Ashanti Regional Capital of Kumasi.
According to a UTV report sighted by GhanaWeb the confiscated products include a variety of aphrodisiacs, unregistered herbal products, orthodox pain relievers, and cosmetics.
The said items at the estimated value were all retrieved from a single shop at Alabar which according to the FDA is a hotspot for unregistered drug peddlers.
According to the FDA “the exercise sought to bring offenders into compliance with the Public Health Act, 2012, Act 851.”
