Authorities shut down pharmacy at wellness center in Tarlac

Authorities raided the Dr. Farrah Agustin-Bunch Natural Medical Center in Victoria, Tarlac on Friday and closed its pharmacy for allegedly selling food supplements without authorization, according to a report on Saksi on Friday.

The said food supplements were then confiscated by authorities.

Agustin-Bunch was not around when the raid was conducted.

In a text message sent to GMA News, Agustin-Bunch said the raid conducted by the Food and Drug Administration of the Philippines was illegal.
