JAKARTA - The Criminal Investigation Unit of the National Police is investigating vaccines during immunizations and medications for paracetamol caps as a cause of the emergence of new cases of acute kidney failure in Jakarta. The investigation was carried out because the drug Praxion, previously referred to as known EG (ethilen glycol) and DEG (dietilen glycol) levels, was still on the safe boundary. "Currently, the National Police is still investigating other drugs besides Praxion that were consumed by the victims, including vaccines during immunization and teased drug paracetamol dropped," said Karo Penmas, Police Public Relations Division, Brigadier General Ahmad Ramadhan, to reporters, Tuesday, March 14. However, it was not detailed about the development of the deepening of the two drugs, which are now suspected to be the cause of the new kidney failure case. On the other hand, in the investigation process, the Directorate of Certain Crimes (Dittipidter) of the Criminal Investigation Unit has examined the Head of BPOM DKI Jakarta, Susan Garcia Arpan, on March 6. It is said that investigators are investigating the circulation of raw materials for drugs. "Which summons is with the intention of providing an explanation related to the process of supervising raw materials for pharmaceutical traders," said Ramadhan. Meanwhile, the National Police Labfor has tested a sample of Praxion which is said to be the cause of the emergence of new kidney failure cases in Jakarta. As a result, the drug is still considered safe to consume. "So the prexion medicine is still safe for consumption," said Ramadhan. The drug Praxion was declared safe because the results of the EG (ethilen glycol) and DEG (dietilen glycol) levels were still on the predetermined boundary. Thus, there may be other allegations that led to the emergence of new cases of kidney failure in children in Jakarta. The “Hasil uji terhadap obat Praxion tersebut menyatakan bahwa jenis obat tersebut masih sesuai dengan pembataran yang ditentukan,” kata Ramadhan.
