China exposes 15 websites dealing fake medicines
Adjust font size:

China's State Food and Drug Administration (SFDA) Tuesday exposed 15 more illegal websites selling or disseminating information about fake medicines.

The newly exposed websites include pfkf09.com, bqeqgy.com.cn/yyjs.asp, and 09tnb.com. They claimed to be offering medicines or links to medicines on skin diseases, respiration and diabetes.

The SFDA said they have turned in these cases to prosecutors for investigation and punishment.

This is part of a crackdown on illegal online medicine dealing launched by the SFDA at the beginning of 2008. Figures released on the SFDA website showed that they had exposed 171 illegal websites before today's announcement.

In 2009, the number of exposed websites has fallen by more than 50 percent over the same period of 2008, according to figures on the SFDA website.
