Background: Quetiapine fumarate (QF) is a drug frequently prescribed to treat various psychotic conditions such as bipolar disorder and SCZ (schizophrenia). More than 50 companies in Bangladesh manufacture this generic.
Aim: The use of substandard or counterfeit medicines may worsen the disease condition and significantly reduce patient quality of life. As there is a vast opportunity to use low-cost generic products, we aimed this project to evaluate whether these QF brands meet the in-vitro quality control parameters for ensuring pharmacopoeial criteria.
