Illegal Importation and Selling of Introcan IV Catheters

B. Braun Medical Inc. had been abolished their importation and registration of Introcan IV Catheters in the Philippine market approved by the FDA Philippines. But some smuggles of them are being sold in the Avenida St. and Bambang St. Medical Suppliers are hoarding these smuggled supply products and are being served to customers who are looking for them. Hospitals and medical professionals were not informed about the cessation of distribution of these supplies, thus continuing of usage is done. FDA should enforce inspection on the those establishments with Bureau of Customs to eliminate the marketing of such imported and unregistered medical supplies in our country.
