A Taiwanese traditional Chinese medicine factory, Chuang Chun-jen Biotech, was found to be producing fake medicine by the Kaohsiung City Health Bureau. The Ministry of Health and Welfare announced the recall and removal from shelves of 12 batches of products, with approximately 7 to over 200 bottles each, distributed to Kaohsiung, Keelung, and three other cities. The recall and removal process is expected to be completed within the week. The company was discovered to be manufacturing Chinese medicine products in an unapproved production area, involving questionable products with unidentified powder. The public was advised to check the legitimacy of medicine through the Department of Chinese Medicine's webpage.
