Avi Sharma (32), based in Gurugram, India, has been arrested for allegedly manufacturing counterfeit diabetes and weight loss medications, including a fake product branded as 'Toneup'. This product was falsely marketed as a Japanese drug to evade detection. Authorities discovered that Sharma had attempted to sell these counterfeit injections in Delhi's Bhagirath Palace market but failed to make any sales. A total of 262 fake Mounjaro injections were recovered, alongside 22 'Toneup' injections that were recalled from cities like Delhi and Hyderabad. Gurugram's Drug Control Officer Amandeep Chauhan stated that the counterfeit products were not approved by any regulatory body and had not undergone testing, posing serious health risks. The packaging of the counterfeit drugs contained noticeable discrepancies, including color differences and typographical errors. Eli Lilly, the legitimate manufacturer of Mounjaro, has welcomed the regulatory actions taken against these illicit products, emphasizing the importance of patient safety.
