Ecuador seizes 7,600+ irregular medicines near Monte Sinaí Hospital

Ecuador's health regulator Arcsa raided tents near Monte Sinaí Hospital in Guayaquil, seizing over 7,600 irregular medicines, with an illegal warehouse supplying part of the stock. The incident highlights ongoing informal pharmaceutical distribution in the area, though the scale and health impact remain unclear. This matters as it signals potential public health risks from unregulated medicines in a major urban hospital zone.
