How catalogue review works
Each product passes a four-stage review before being listed on Newlife Hospital Pharmacy.
Ingredient review
Each active ingredient is checked against published mechanism data and against FSSAI Schedule II of the Health Supplements & Nutraceuticals Regulations, 2022. Products relying on therapeutic claims a nutraceutical cannot legally make in India are rejected at this stage.
Dosage rationale
Active-ingredient dosages are compared to the dose ranges used in published clinical literature. Products with sub-clinical doses hidden inside proprietary blends are rejected.
Consumer-claim audit
The product page copy is audited against FSSAI consumer-claim guidance. Disease-claim language is removed. Permitted nutrition-function and structure-function claims are preserved with the appropriate qualifying language.
Interaction flagging
Known interactions with common Indian prescription medicines (anti-diabetic, anti-hypertensive, thyroid, anti-coagulant, anti-platelet) are noted on the product page in a dedicated "Consult your doctor if" callout.
