Dettol soap found to be 'sub-standard' as brand fails lab tests

 

After Maggi noodles, another product from a multi-national brand has now failed laboratory test. 

A sample of Dettol soap, a brand owned by Reckitt Benckiser (India) Limited, has failed laboratory tests. 

Along with Dettol soap, 10 other medicines have failed laboratory tests and a notice will soon be sent to them. 

According to reports, the Food and Drugs Administration (FDA) collected samples from Agra in November last year and subsequently sent them for laboratory tests in Lucknow. 

The report was sent to the FDA and Dettol and 10 other medicines failed the tests and were also declared sub-standard. 

According to reports, the FDA collected a total of 11 samples of medicines, tinctures and Dettol soap, and all of them were found to be sub-standard.
