There is a risk of serious side effects when using the product "Ginseng Kianpi Pil", the Medical Products Agency warns in a press release.

The Medical Products Agency urges those who use the product to immediately contact a doctor to be able to stop using the product in a safe manner.

The product is said to contain various plants, but contains the medicinal substances dexamethasone (cortisone) and cyproheptadine (antihistamine). Something one should not use uncontrolled or on one's own initiative.

It is illegal to sell "Ginseng Kianpi Pil" since it is not approved as a medicine.
