New Express Daily News - On the 14th, CCTV's "Focus Interview" program exposed the scandal of Shandong Pingyin Fujiao Group using horse head and leg skins as raw materials to produce the traditional Chinese medicine Ejiao, which should originally be made from donkey skins. The report pointed out that this practice would severely endanger the health and safety of patients.

According to the report, the raw material warehouse of Fujiao Group was filled with shredded horse skins. On the group's raw material procurement list, it was evident that large quantities of shredded horse skins were purposefully purchased in batches, and the origin of these purchases was the same place where journalists had previously discovered a large-scale acquisition of horse skins.

This group specializes in the production and operation of the traditional Chinese medicine Ejiao. They purchase these cheap shredded horse skins in large quantities to replace the more expensive donkey skins in the preparation of Ejiao, aiming to reap substantial profits.

Experts pointed out that using horse skins to prepare "Ejiao" has the opposite effect of using donkey skins, and doing so would severely harm the health and safety of patients. The National Medical Products Administration clearly stated that such behavior not only seriously violates professional ethics but also constitutes a severe illegal act that harms patients.
