Enalapril: bans, restrictions and failed batches in India
Last checked 20 September 2026. Sources: CDSCO banned-drugs notifications and monthly NSQ alerts, Jan 2019 to Jul 2026
No combination containing Enalapril is on India's banned-drugs list. 13 batches of medicines containing Enalapril failed a government lab test between October 2019 and February 2026, from 7 manufacturers. A failed batch concerns that batch only, not the medicine or every brand.
On the banned-drugs list
Enalapril on its own is not on CDSCO's banned list. The entries below are specific combinations that contain it. Status follows CDSCO's own notes on each entry.
No entry containing Enalapril is on the list compiled from CDSCO's Section 26A notifications (1983 to 2026). That is not a statement that every product containing it is safe.
