It said, “The team confiscated a large consignment of banned codeine-based syrups and other controlled substances.
“Thirteen shops were sealed for dealing in unregistered, expired, banned and controlled products, including Dynamogen Oral Solution, Diazepam, Molly, Co-codamol and Bromazepam.
“These substances pose severe risks to vital organs such as the brain, liver and kidneys, as the safety and efficacy of unregistered and banned medicines cannot be guaranteed.
“NAFDAC urges the public to remain vigilant and report suspicious activities to the nearest NAFDAC office.”
