RxVerify commentary

  • Donystatin Cream is on the NAFDAC register with an active registration (B4-5863). A valid number alone does not prove a pack is genuine — counterfeiters copy real numbers, so also check the expiry date, seal and print quality.

Generated automatically from the NAFDAC register, WHO alerts and community data as of today. Not medical advice — always follow your doctor or pharmacist.
