Ethical Profile

Mixed.

China SXT Pharmaceuticals (SXTC.US) has a mixed ethical profile. It aids healthcare accessibility with traditional Chinese medicine, including Zhudanfen in the National Medical Insurance Catalogue. However, critics highlight ethical sourcing challenges: its complex TCM supply chains are fundamentally in conflict with fair trade, hindering traceability and fair labor. Performance is reportedly below average. Animal welfare is a concern due to potential use of animal-derived ingredients (e.g., deer blood) and animal testing. Its DitchCarbon score of 20, lower than 94% of its industry, suggests environmental impact issues. Transparency is limited across ethical areas.
