Health hazard series
Last update date April 1, 2023
We have been testing "so-called health foods" sold at drug stores and online shops since 1998, and are working to prevent health hazards caused by taking these drugs.
Based on past test results, we provide information on samples that have violated the Pharmaceutical Affairs Law and information on pharmaceutical ingredients that have been mixed in.
Be sure to collect enough information when trying to get "so-called health foods" via the Internet or personal import.
