Toxic cough syrup
Toxic cough syrup refers to a 2007 scandal in which Panamanian pharmaceutical manufacturers produced cough syrup using diethylene glycol which they believed to be glycerine. Diethylene glycol is a less-expensive alternative to glycerine for industrial applications, however, diethylene glycol is nephrotoxic and can result in multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS), especially in children.
==History==
A New York Times article reported eight mass poisonings in Panama, China, Haiti, Bangladesh, Argentina, Nigeria, and India (twice) between 1992 and 2007, due to contaminated cough syrup and other medications that incorporated inexpensive diethylene glycol instead of the intended glycerin. In May 2007, 365 deaths were reported in Panama.
In Panama, the imported diethylene glycol came from a Chinese manufacturer, sold under the unfortunate name TD glycerine, which means 'glycerine substitute'. A Spanish middleman filling the customs declaration changed the name to glycerine.
The China Food and Drug Administration did not regard the toxic cough syrup scandal as being China's fault. The Chinese manufacturer exported the diethylene glycol under the name TD glycerine, but the Spanish middleman Aduanas Javier de Gracia changed the name to glycerine when he filled the customs declaration in Panama.〔(毒糖浆巴拿马致死百人 我药监局称责任不在中方 )〕〔(质检总局：巴拿马药品中毒事件责任在巴商人 )〕
