As some people had questions because some people have started rumours.

1. Eiho products changed their lids recently

2. EIHO do not have expiry date printed on the bottles

3. We don't have any fake batches or batch numbers printed from them

4. No numbers printed on hexacure tablets

5. We are the only official importer and distributor for Eiho products in Sri Lanka and all are products are imported monthly so we don't have bottles which are older.

For further details you can either ask us or Eiho themselves.

https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=1623843301300945&id=296346484050640&mibextid=Nif5oz

Dear friends of EIHO, recently, we have change the cap of eiho's bottle to a smaller one.
The reason for change is that the previous cap is causing leakage.
All Eiho bottle 120ml, 250ml, 500ml will have the new cap.

We apologies for any inconvenience cause
