Almost half a million tablets and capsules were seized by the State’s drug policing body in 2009, an increase of almost 40% over the previous year.
There were 5,671 other products, including liquids and creams confiscated by the Irish Medicines Board (IMB).
Some of the products seized contained various active substances used to treat anxiety and insomnia. Many were in the area of weight loss and erectile dysfunction.
