The two other companies also punished for the same violation were named as Thai Nakorn Patana Ltd Com and Micro Labs Limited also registered in India.
Another company, Nutri-Pharma of the United States received the same punishment for 12 months because it failed to update information related to effectiveness and safety of drug sold in Việt Nam.
