SFDA reviews 170,000 licenses for medicine

China's regulator for food and drugs, the State Food and Drug Administration (SFDA), is reviewing 170,000 licenses issued in the past decade, write the International Herald Tribune. This is the result of yet another court case against a high official of the SFDA, Zheng Xiaoyu, who was this week sentenced to death for being bribed. He headed the SFDA from 1998 till 2005.
