What are Drugs,
Dietary Supplements & Cosmetics?

To be well informed it is essential
to understand the basic definitions of
the phrases being used in the health and
wellness industry.

What is a Drug?

A drug, broadly speaking, is any
substance that, when absorbed into the
body of a living organism, alters normal
bodily function. In pharmacology, a
drug is “a chemical substance used in the
treatment, cure, prevention, or diagnosis
of disease or used to otherwise enhance
physical or mental well-being.”
The term DRUGS is defined under
Sec 3(b) of The Drugs and Cosmetics
Act, 1940 as medicine for the internal or
external use of human beings or animals
and any substances intended to be used
for, or, in the diagnosis, cure, mitigation,
treatment or prevention of disease in
human beings or animals. It also includes
any article other than food, intended to
affect or influence in any way the structure
or any organic function of the body of
human beings or animals and, any article
intended for use as a component of any
medicine, substance or article.
A Drug can also be a single chemical
substance in a medicine that alters the
structure or function of some of the body’s
biological processes. A medicine on the
other hand is a drug or a combination of
drugs that is intended to prevent illness
cure diseases and relieve pain.

What is a Cosmetic?

The term COSMETIC is defined under
Sec 3(aaa) of The Drugs and Cosmetics
Act, 1940 as any article intended to be
rubbed, poured, sprinkled or sprayed on or
introduced into, or applied to the human
body or any part thereof for cleansing
beautifying, promoting attractiveness, or
altering the appearance, and include any
article intended for use as a component for
cosmetics.
This definition shows that cosmetic
products are meant to improve the
appearance of a person, that is, they enhance
the beauty. Some skin care products have
inclusions of drugs in their preparations,
for example Boroline is a drug within the
meaning of the Act and therefore is not a
cosmetic even though it is topically applied
to the skin to improve the appearance.
Taking this into another example,
do you remember the old jingle of Vicco
Turmeric Ayurvedic Cream? It went like
this: “Vicco turmeric nahi cosmetic! Vicco
Turmeric Ayurvedic cream!” The company
is telling us through this jingle that
the product, although being a topical
application, is not a cosmetic and has
medical properties and therapeutic uses.

What is a Dietary Supplement?

The word “supplement” means
“something added”. In this case, you’re
“adding” to a basic healthy diet and
lifestyle. A dietary supplement, also known
as food / nutritional supplement, is a
preparation intended to provide nutrients,
such as vitamins, minerals, fiber, fatty acids
or amino acids that are missing or are
not consumed in sufficient quantity in a
person’s diet. In other words, it is a product
that contains a dietary ingredient intended
to supplement or enhance the diet.
They can be extracts or concentrates
and for ease of consumption, may be
presented as tablets, capsules, soft gels, soft
gel capsules, liquids or powders. They are
widely available in the market place. Any
individual is able to sell or purchase them
freely.

The Food and Drugs Administration
(FDA) does not regulate dietary
supplements in the same way that it
regulates medicine / drugs. A dietary
supplement item is developed, based on
supplement requirements for wellness of
people and should not be confused with
medicines and drugs. If you have an
illness or a health problem, make sure you
seek advice from your doctor or medical
practitioner.
Distributors of Dietary Supplements
cannot legally say that dietary supplements
can diagnose, cure, treat, or prevent disease.
But they can say that they contribute to
health maintenance, well-being and a
healthy lifestyle.
