I can't believe my self also but its true. Fazal Din's Pharma Plus, one of the renowned pharmacy of Pakistan sold an expired medicine to customer and nobody even cares to entertain it. Shameful act. I hope people see what they are buyin before using.
Common practice that I will suggest while buying medicines:
1) Always check Expiry dates.
2) In case you are not buying full packet of tablets/capsules, ask the shopkeeper to first show you the packet. Confirm expiry from box.
3) There is always expiry mentioned on tablet's leaflet. I am talking about silver/aluminium type leaflet in which medicines are enclosed. Usually fake medicines have that cut-off. So even you are buying medicines in box just confirm the expiry from leaflet.
Kindly add more points if you know.
