The Ministry of Food and Drug Safety, which launched a intensive investigation into’Vinex’ immediately after YTN was reported.

Following the suspension of production of six products, including antidiabetic drugs and antidepressants, additional sanctions were ordered on 32 items.

All of them are 24 pharmaceutical companies entrusted to Binex to manufacture them.

While the illegal manufacturing ripple of’Binex’ spread throughout the pharmaceutical industry, the Korean Pharmacopoeia also took place.

The pharmacist society pointed out that the illegal manufacturing that is prevalent in the so-called’generic market’, a generic drug that has emerged from this crisis, should be eradicated.

Earlier, Binex claimed to YTN reporters that the random manipulation of raw materials is no different from the industry’s unwritten rules.

The pharmacist society pointed out that the essence of this problem is the’unlimited consignment production system’ implemented by pharmaceutical companies to conserve production facilities.

According to the current law, if Company A passes the’animal test’, many companies can only entrust the production to Company A and then sell the same drugs by changing the packaging.

Because they didn’t manufacture them themselves, they neglect quality control, and if one product becomes a problem like this one, dozens of products are inevitably recovered.

The Ministry of Food and Drug Safety said that it is seriously looking at the issue of’Vinex’, and it is a policy that criminal penalties for violations of laws and regulations will be immortalized on the principle of zero tolerance.

In addition, he added that as the structural problems of the generic drug market have been revealed, it will prepare and promote system improvement tasks to prevent recurrence.
