On October 15, People's Daily reported that Haiyan Pharmaceuticals, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Zhejiang Haizheng Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., a manufacturer of "Isojia", commissioned Shanghai Jintiancheng Law Firm, Shanghai Bohe Law Firm and Shanghai Zhongda Law Firm to file a petition with the Shanghai Pudong New District People's Court and the West Lake District People's Court of Hangzhou City, Zhejiang Province, respectively, for false propaganda and unfair competition in the ammonia calcium tablet health care products of the U.S. health care brand MoveFree Festival. Earlier, Haiyan Pharmaceuticals has complained about the incident in Shanghai and Zhejiang market supervision authority.

In promoting the efficacy of its products, moveFree Festival directly compared hydrochloric acid amino glucose with sulfate amino glucose, citing non-authoritative literature, and simply concluded that hydrochloric acid amino glucose is better than sulfate amino glucose. Consumers mistakenly believe that ammonia hydrochloride is superior to ammonia sulfate, which has a negative impact on the sales of pharmaceutical manufacturers, including Isoja, which is the main component of ammonia sulphate.

Article 16 of the Advertising Law stipulates that advertisements for medical treatment, medicines and medical devices shall not be compared with the efficacy and safety of other drugs and medical devices or other medical institutions. Article 18 stipulates that advertisements for health food shall not be compared with medicines or other health food products. The Promotion of the MoveFree Festival is in violation of the Advertising Act.

Article 11 of the Anti-Unfair Competition Law stipulates that operators shall not fabricate or disseminate false or misleading information to damage the commercial reputation or commodity reputation of competitors.

It is clear that the promotion of the MoveFree Festival also constitutes false propaganda and unfair competition.
