DRUG REGULATION IN INDIA: SWOT ANALYSIS
Journal Title: International Journal of Drug Regulatory Affairs - Year 2015, Vol 3, Issue 3
Abstract
Drug regulation plays pivotal role in any country because the purpose of drug regulation is to promote and to protect public health by ensuring the safety, efficacy and quality of drugs. Drug regulation should cover all products for which medicinal claims are made and all aspects of drugs like manufacturing, import, export, distribution, dispensing, promotion, sell and supply. But unfortunately drug regulation does not meet these requirements in India as legislation omits or exempts certain areas of pharmaceutical activity from the scope of control in India. Although there are so many deficiencies, lacunae and hurdles in Indian drug regulation, there is a wider scope for drug regulation in India because government is taking positive steps to reform it. One can say India is a vast ocean of opportunities. Hence it is tried to analyse the drug regulation of India using the framework of SWOT (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats). SWOT analysis aids to find out possible ways to overcome the weaknesses and threats, and to utilize the strengths and opportunities properly
