It comes days after the North Korean leader banned all Chinese medicines at major hospitals in the capital Pyongyang.
He issued the decree after a senior bureaucrat died suddenly. They had received a jab imported from China.
According to reports, the top official had been suffering from heart-related illnesses and high blood pressure.
He was being treated at the Pyongyang Medical College Hospital.
