Is Pramlintide legal in India?
Not approved as a medicine here.
The CDSCO expert-committee records reviewed (2015 to September 2026) show no marketing application or permission for it. Under the New Drugs and Clinical Trials Rules, 2019, a drug that the Central Licensing Authority has not approved is a 'new drug' and may not be made for sale or distribution without permission, and CDSCO has used this rule to direct State Drug Controllers to act against other unapproved products (for example, enclomiphene in August 2026). Pramlintide is an amylin-analogue injection used in some countries for people with diabetes who take mealtime insulin; it is not an authorised medicine in India as far as the public regulator records show.
