Indonesia bans syrup medicines as children die_我的网站

一 | Jakarta, Oct 20 (UNI) The deaths of nearly 100 children in Indonesia has prompted the country to suspend sales of all syrup and liquid medication.
It comes just weeks after a cough syrup in The Gambia was linked to the deaths of nearly 70 children, reports BBC.
Indonesia said some syrup medicine was found to contain ingredients linked to acute kidney injuries (AKI), which have killed 99 young children this year.
It was not clear if the medicine were imported or locally produced.
On Thursday, Indonesian health officials said they had reported around 200 cases of AKI in children, most of who were aged under five, the BBC reported.
Earlier this month, the The World Health Organization (WHO) issued a global alert over four cough syrups that were linked to the deaths of almost 70 children in The Gambia.
The WHO found the syrups used there -- made by an Indian pharmaceutical company -- contained "unacceptable amounts" of diethylene glycol and ethylene glycol. The syrups have been "potentially linked with acute kidney injuries", said the organisation.
Indonesia's Health Minister on Thursday said the same chemical compounds were also found in some medicines used locally.
"Some syrups that were used by AKI child patients under five were proven to contain ethylene glycol and diethylene glycol that were not supposed to be there, or of very little amount," said Budi Gunadi Sadikin. He did not disclose how many cases involved the toxic medicines.
Indonesian authorities said the cough syrups used in The Gambia were not sold locally.
Indonesian authorities have so far not disclosed the brands or types of syrup medicines linked to sick children - instead just temporarily banning the sale and prescription of all syrup and liquid medicines.

Beijing's housing authority announced on Friday that the social insurance or individual income tax payment requirement for non-Beijing-registered families to purchase commercial residential properties within the city's fifth ring road will be reduced from "two years" to "one year," effective Saturday.
The new rule, jointly announced by the Beijing Municipal Commission of Housing and Urban-Rural Development, the Beijing Municipal Commission of Planning and Natural Resources, and the Beijing Housing Provident Fund Management Center, aims to further optimize and adjust the city's real estate policies.
Following this adjustment, the social insurance or income tax payment requirement for non-resident families purchasing commercial residential properties throughout the entire city is uniformly set at one year, while the number of units they may purchase remains unchanged.
Specifically, non-resident families that have paid social insurance or individual income tax for at least one year are eligible to purchase one commercial residential unit within the fifth ring road, and families with multiple children may purchase one additional unit. Outside the fifth ring road, there is no limit on the number of units they may purchase.
