There's a 2014-2016 survey of drugs.
That's followed up with smaller surveys by CDSCO.
We will compare with March 2023 report.
Let's look for repeated offenders.
Skymap Pharmaceuticals Uttarakhand. In the old survey they had 14.04% samples NSQ. In March 2023, they're NSQ again in 2 samples. (We do not know how many samples from Skymap were tested, so we cannot reproduce a percentage).
There are two samples without manufacturer specified (of Ritonavir and Rivastigmine).
There is Karnataka Antibiotics & Pharmaceuticals Limited coming up 4 times within the March list.
Ridley Life Sciences Delhi shows up twice. They were in the 2014-16 list for 11/52 samples (21%) being NSQ.
Neon Laboratories Maharashtra shows up once. They were in the 2014-16 list for 2/42 samples, that is 4% being NSQ.
Preet Remedies Himachal shows up once. They were in the 2014-16 list for 2/47 that is 4% being NSQ.
Shiva Biogenetic Himachal shows up once. They were in the 2014-16 list for 25/62 that is 40% samples being NSQ.
Let's take the October 2022 list to see if we can find more common names.
Ridley is there once in this list too.
Zee Laboratories of Himachal Pradesh makes one entry. Zee has an entry in the 2014-2016 list for having 40/222 (18%) samples NSQ.
Mercury Laboratories Gujarat makes it to the list too with one entry. Mercury Gujarat was the topper in 2014-2016 list
Shiva Biogenetic Himachal Pradesh is back here too.
Pure & Cure Healthcare Uttarakhand makes one entry. They were in the 2014-16 list with the misname Pure & Care for 3/38 samples (7.8%) NSQ.
This is emerging to be a good tech project to track each pharma and their NSQ detections. Maybe for another day.
One challenge is that we do not know the denominator on the smaller surveys.
