EXCLUSIVE-India may issue alert on Marion cough syrup exports after toxins found
New Delhi is pursuing the issue even as the government has pushed back against allegations that cough syrup made by another Indian company, Maiden Pharmaceuticals, led to the deaths of children in Gambia last year. Vaibhav Babbar, an inspector involved in the Marion probe, told Reuters the samples had been adulterated with ethylene glycol and diethylene glycol – the toxins that the World Health Organization says were found in the products sold by the two companies in the two countries.
