The Times of India reported that following the episode, some chemists have started recalling all Combiflam tablets irrespective of the batch as a "precautionary measure," as they fear infamy due to a possibility of test failure by the government.


Sanofi India Limited has a depot in Ghaziabad from where the medicines are supplied to entire western UP including districts like Gautam Budh Nagar, Ghaziabad, Meerut, Saharanpur, Bareilly, Muzaffarnagar, Moradabad, etc through the C&F agents.


Meanwhile, most chemists have started returning all the Combiflam tablets for fear of earning a bad name to the pharmacy.
