SFDA warns about medical claims of " Pama Herb Drench" produced by Nancy City Aofula Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd

​SFDA would like to warn all consumers about the medical claims of (Bama Herb Drench), a herbal product from Nancy city Aofula pharmaceutical co. ltd, which dissolves in water and its soak is used for massaging legs. The product is promoted in some satellite channels and social networks and websites, as a remover of insomnia, joint pain, menstruation pain , exhaustion, headache, constipation and many medical claims . Such claims are found to be misleading and not true. The product is only used to massage the legs and its effect is not different from ‘Marine Salt’ used for massage.

SFDA also calls upon consumers to report any side effects to the National Center for Pharmacovigilence and Drug Safety to the following address:
