TUMHARI SULU in trouble |
The promotional material for an upcoming Vidya Balan movie `Tumhari Sulu`, which features an over-the-counter (OTC) cough syrup, has come under the Food and Drugs Administration (FDA) scanner. Complaints have been filed with the authority that the syrup contains ingredients that can cause adverse side-effects for patients with existing neurological, cardiovascular, psychological and breathing complications. FDA officials reportedly said they would check the contents of the syrup and issue notices to officials concerned on the basis of a complaint. However, Tanuj Garg, co-producer of `Tumhari Sulu`, said they are not aware of it. The Chandigarh-based pharmaceutical company, which manufactures the cough syrup, was pulled up by FDA Maharashtra in 2015 for promoting a fairness cream, which allegedly contained corticosteroid. FDA had also prohibited the marketing of the product in the state.
