Indonesia has stopped the sale of all medical and cough syrups, and liquid medication after 99 children died, amidst an unexplained spike in acute kidney injuries.
Indonesia Bans Sale Of Cough Syrups + Liquid Meds!
On Thursday, October 20, 2022, Indonesia banned the sale of all syrup and liquid medication, including cough syrups.
This decision follows the deaths of 99 children, and 206 cases of acute kidney injuries in children, mostly under 6 years of age.
As a precaution, the ministry has asked health workers in health facilities not to prescribe liquid medicine or syrup temporarily.
We also ask that drug stores temporarily stop all sales of non-prescription liquid medicine or syrup until our investigations are completed.
– Indonesia Health Ministry spokesperson Mohammad Syahril

Indonesia Ban Of Cough Syrups + Liquid Meds : What’s Going On?!
Just a week ago, the World Health Organization (WHO) linked four cough syrups made in India to the deaths of more than 60 children who suffered acute kidney failure in The Gambia, West Africa.
WHO suspected that the four cough syrups made by Maiden Pharmaceuticals Limited of India, contained “unacceptable amounts” of diethylene glycol and ethylene glycol, which can damage the brain, lungs, liver and kidneys.
India’s Central Drugs Standard Control Organizatio immediately shut down Maiden Pharmaceuticals’ factory in New Delhi where these cough syrups were made.
In view of the seriousness of the contraventions observed during the investigation and its potential risk to the quality, safety and efficacy of the drugs being produced, all the manufacturing activities of the firm (are) being stopped with immediate effect.
The cough syrups that killed so many children in The Gambia though were not sold in Indonesia, according to the Indonesian food and drugs agency.
However, Indonesian Health Ministry Budi Gunadi Sadikin said today (Thursday, October 20) that the same toxic substances – diethylene glycol and ethylene glycol – were detected in syrups found in the homes of some of the affected children.
He added that the number of acute kidney failure cases could be higher than reported, so his health ministry was taking the conservative approach by banning the sale of all medical syrups and liquid medication.
