The '''Central Drugs Standard Control Organisation''' ('''CDSCO''') is [[India]]'s national regulatory body for [[pharmaceuticals]] and [[medical device]]s. It serves a similar function to the [[European Medicines Agency]] of the [[European Union]], the [[Pharmaceuticals and Medical Devices Agency|PMDA]] of [[Japan]], the [[Food and Drug Administration]] (FDA) of the [[United States]], and the [[Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency]] of the [[United Kingdom]], and the [[National Medical Products Administration]] (NMPA) of China. The Indian government has announced its plan to bring all medical devices, including [[Implant (medicine)|implants]] and [[Birth control|contraceptives]] under a review of the Central Drugs and Standard Control Organisation (CDSCO).

Within the CDSCO, the [[Drug Controller General of India]] (DCGI) regulates pharmaceutical and medical devices and is positioning within the [[Ministry of Health and Family Welfare]]. The DCGI is advised by the Drug Technical Advisory Board (DTAB) and the Drug Consultative Committee (DCC). Divided into zonal offices, each one carries out pre-licensing and post-licensing inspections, [[Postmarketing surveillance|post-market surveillance]], and drug recalls (where necessary). Manufacturers who deal with the authority required to name an Authorized Indian Representative (AIR) to represent them in all dealings with the CDSCO in India.

Though the CDSCO has a good track record with the [[World Health Organization]], it has also been accused of past collusion with independent medical experts and pharmaceutical companies. CDSCO plans to open an international office in [[Beijing, China]].
