ALERT: ‘Beware Of New Killer Syrup In Town’ – NAFDAC Warns Nigerians

The National Agency for Food and Drugs Administration and Control (NAFDAC) has alerted Nigerians about a dangerous cough syrup in circulation.

The cough syrup called ‘NATURCOLD’, is reportedly manufactured by Fraken Group.

According to reports, the syrup is believed to have caused the deaths of six children under the age of five at a health facility in the health district of Fundong, in the North-West region of Cameroon.

According to the North-West Regional of Cameroon delegate for Public Health, the children showed a decrease in kidney function after using the cough syrup.

This was disclosed in a recent press statement by NAFDAC.
