The State Food and Drug Administration (SFDA) listed on its website the names of 33 kinds of fake, unregistered medicines on Tuesday.

These medicines claim to cure chronic diseases such as diabetes and psoriasis.

The SFDA ordered its local offices to strengthen management of the medical industry and severely punish those responsible. It also asked the consumers to keep alert and only buy medicines through legal channels.
