The Director of Enforcement Department of PCN, Stephen Esumobi, disclosed this at a press conference in Jos on Friday at the end of their one-week enforcement in the state.

Esumobi said, “The national enforcement team of the Pharmacists Council of Nigeria has been in Plateau State since the beginning of the week as part of its efforts towards regulating and controlling the education, training and practise of pharmacy in all its ramifications and at the end of the enforcement, a total of 641 premises comprising 208 pharmacies and 433 patent medicine shops were visited.

“A total of 434 premises made up of 115 pharmacies and 319 patent medicine shops were sealed for various offences some of which include operating without registration with the Pharmacists Council of Nigeria, failure to renew premises licences, dispensing products, including substances of abuse without the supervision of a pharmacist, poor storage and sanitary conditions, carrying out activities beyond the scope of their licence among others while two vendors were arrested for breaking PCN seals “

The director said that those arrested would be prosecuted in line with extant laws.

He advised members of the public to always purchase their medicines from licensed pharmacies and simple household remedies from licensed patent medicine shops.
