Residents of Homa Bay County have been urged to help in the fight against unlicensed pharmacies selling fake medicine.
The County Pharmacist Wycliffe Dunde said that the proliferation of unregistered clinics and fake medicine in the market was a threat to the health and wellbeing of the residents.
He said that the residents can report such unscrupulous dealers to the Kenya Medical Practitioners and Dentists Council (KMPDC) and Pharmacy and Poisons Board.
Dunde said they have closed down some clinics in Homa Bay county following complaints that they are operating without licenses while some were found selling fake medicine.
