Redha Salman, the director of public health and safety at Dubai's municipality has said that city officials have seized dozens of types of pills and purported health supplements from shops over concerns that they could be dangerous, according to the National. Salman said increased use of the supplements and pills, most of which are priced at less than $1.40, had triggered the move. 'These products were confiscated as they claimed to be a medicine, which was not approved by the Ministry of Health,' he said.
