Abstract

CRUDE DRUG ADULTERATION: A CONCISE REVIEW

Salman Ahmed*and Muhammad Mohtasheemul Hasan

ABSTRACT

The adulteration and substitution of crude drug is a burning problem. No doubt, substitution is helpful in places where unavailability of particular crude drug and or unwanted adverse effects of desired crude drug are there and have a choice of other drug with similar pharmacological effect and less unwanted after effects. But in most cases , it is unacceptable because the conversion of authentic drug into substandard drug may cause variety of adverse effects from mild and moderate to severe life threatening reactions. So, understanding of all the ways of adulteration and substitution is necessary to rectify this illegal act and maximizing consumers' safety. At the end of this review, Botanical Adulterant Program of American Botanical Council is also highlighted.

Keywords: Adulteration, crude drug, substitution.
