Abstract
Thirty samples of traditional antirheumatoid drugs freely available in Chinese drug stores in Singapore and West Malaysia were analysed for undeclared synthetic drugs using thin layer chromatography, high performance liquid chromatography, micro-colour test and infra-red spectroscopy. Four of the samples were found to contain undisclosed synthetic drugs, two contained paracetamol and two prednisolone.Keywords
