17B. Spurious drugs. �
For the purposes of this Chapter, a
drug shall be deemed to be spurious, -
(a) If it is manufactured
under a name which belongs to another drug; or
(b) If it is an imitation of,
or is a substitute for, another drug or resembles another drug in a manner
likely to deceive or bears upon it or upon its label or container the name of
another drug unless it is plainly and conspicuously marked so as to reveal its
true character and its lack of identity with such other drug ; or
(c) If the label or container
bears the name of an individual or company purporting to be the manufacturer of
the drug, which individual or company is fictitious or does not exist ; or
(d) If it has been
substituted wholly or in part by another drug or substance ; or
(e) If it purports to be the
product of a manufacturer of whom it is not truly a product.
