In Armenia, an alarm of a fake batch of medicine has been received again. This is reported by the RA health and labor inspection body.

“According to the letter received by the “Drugs and Medical Technology Expert Center” SNOC on May 11, the Hoffman-La Roche company provided information regarding the counterfeiting of Perjeta (pertuzumab) concentrate solution for drip injection 30 mg/ml, glass vial 14 ml of drug N7796 series,” the message said.

AATM is requested to be careful and avoid the use of drug with series N7796.

It should be noted that the drug “Perjeta” is a means of fighting cancer and costs 999 thousand drams. Unfortunately, this is not the first time that fraudsters have counterfeited life-saving medication.
