I am forwarding an information which was sent to me.You may doublecheck and correct me if I am wrong

Please Read Very Carefully - INFORM ALL YOUR FRIENDS & FAMILY MEMBERS.

India has become a dumping ground for banned drugs; also the business for production of banned drugs is booming. Plz make sure that u buy drugs only if prescribed by a doctor (Also, ask which company manufactures it, this would help to ensure that u get what is prescribed at the Drug Store) and that also from a reputed drug store. Not many people know about these banned drugs and consume them causing a lot of damage to themselves. Please Make sure uforward it everyone u know.
