Doctor in the House: Countering Counterfeit Medicine

Dr George Lee returns to discuss the latest medical news. Expect deep insights delivered with generous humour. As medicines and supplements are becoming easier to buy, we are seeing the proliferation of sales of these online.

To help us find out more we speak to Nur Ili Nadiah Zulkiple from the Pharmacy Enforcement Branch of the Health Department of Federal Territory Kuala Lumpur and Putrajaya.
