CBP seizes a batch of drugs from Hong Kong, China

According to foreign media reports, the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) recently seized a batch of goods from Hong Kong, China, containing 4,780 unapproved Viagra pills and 2,000 unapproved Cialis pills in Louisville. The total retail price (MSRP) of these pills is estimated to be more than $460,000 after approval by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) stated that when it supervised all drugs sold on online shopping platforms, it found that only 3% complied with U.S. pharmacy laws and practice standards. Therefore, purchasing drugs online will cause great harm to the health and safety of consumers.

LaFonda Sutton-Burke, director of the Chicago Field Office, said CBP will work with the FDA to increase supervision of these potentially harmful drugs to prevent American consumers from experiencing health problems or even death when using prescription drugs from other countries.

Here we would like to remind all sellers that as the US government's supervision of drugs becomes increasingly strict, sellers need to ensure the certification and licensing of their drug products to avoid problems during the customs clearance process and unnecessary losses.
