The attention of NAFDAC has been drawn to a misleading video circulating on social media claiming that the Agency has secretly banned Amoxicillin in Nigeria. This claim is entirely FALSE.
NAFDAC has not banned Amoxicillin. While the Agency routinely issues targeted safety alerts and recalls on specific substandard or affected batches of medicines, there is no blanket ban on the antibiotic in Nigeria.
We urge the public, healthcare professionals, and stakeholders to disregard the misinformation and rely only on verified updates published on NAFDAC’s official channels.
