Following the Central government's directives on Friday, a joint team of drug inspectors from the Centre and state government raided Aveo Pharmaceuticals, a Palghar-based company allegedly involved in exporting these drugs, the release stated.
Authorities seized all existing stock, prohibited further production, and initiated stringent legal action against the company, the FDA said.
