Health Canada is warning Canadians about the risks of purchasing online drugs and health products, after an international operation targeting counterfeit medications resulted in the confiscation of more than 19,000 packages before they could enter the country.
The June 25 advisory comes the same day that the International Criminal Police Organization (Interpol) announced the seizure of 50.4 million doses of illicit pharmaceuticals worth more than $88 million as well as the arrests of 769 suspects, the largest seizure and arrest count in the organization’s history.
