The National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC) has notified the public of falsified Type 1 and 2 batches of POSTINOR 2 (Levonorgestrel 0.75mg) product in circulation.
Confiance News gathered from its official X handle on Tuesday.
A report was received from the Society of Family Health (SFH), the MAH, which confirmed that their company did not import that product batch.
It said that there are noticeable differences found in the fake brand.
“The font size of the text on the pin verification sticker appears smaller and has a wrong spelling of the word Veify instead of Verify on the fake; meanwhile, the text font on the sticker of the original appears bigger and more visible. There is also a wrong spelling behind the pack of the fake Distnibuted in Nigeria instead of distributed in Nigeria,” it said.
Postinor-2 (Levonorgestrel 0.75mg) is a brand of emergency contraceptive pill (ECP) containing the active ingredient levonorgestrel.
