The National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC) has advised companies involved in donation or marketing of Breast Milk Substitutes (BMS) to keep to the World Health Organisation (WHO) code. Prof. Moji Adeyeye, Director General (DG) of NAFDAC, gave the advice in a statement on Thursday in Abuja.
Adeyeye said that such substitutes for infants should not be provided through health workers. She said that breastmilk products were not expected to display company brand as the intervention was not meant for brand promotion.
