Funny enough our main raw material for producing Adderall came from India. Since we were a GMP facility I had to assume everything was kosher. Plus it goes through a gauntlet of tests before being shipped out.

>Other Ranbaxy plants squeaked through regulatory inspections entirely, like the plant that manufactured generic Lipitor, the blockbuster cholesterol drug. Less than a year after that plant passed an inspection in 2012, Ranbaxy admitted that some of the millions of generic Lipitor pills already dispensed in the U.S. were suffused with tiny shards of blue glass.
Yikes.
>The situation was even worse in Africa, where many manufacturers shipped their lowest-quality drugs. Some were completely counterfeit, with independent lab analysis showing no active ingredients whatsoever. Those that had active ingredients often didn't have enough, and doctors would need to prescribe anywhere from double to 10 times the typical dose to achieve an effect, according to Eban.
So they were basically selling placebos to African countries?
>Eventually, Ranbaxy, as a company, was brought to justice. But none of the individuals responsible were prosecuted
Of course they weren't. And I wouldn't call a $200m fee justice when it's a billion dollar company

Nasty af. Needs litigating to oblivion. Isn't difficult to keep bacteria out, just shoddy practices and now some poor souls lose a huge part of their lives.

As someone who uses eyedrops from Mexico almost daily, oh fucking goodie… (yes, they’re from Mexico, but I’ve gotten many legit products from there)

Sounds like Blink 182 recognized they weren't cool enough to share a space with Iggy and Rancid.

Florida typically doesn’t have basements - otherwise yeah I’d agree with that

I don’t think the salt concentration is high enough to suppress bacterial growth.
There are 5% hypertonic saline eye drops that are different than artificial tears, but even those have preservatives added.

Even though these eye drops were marketed as preservative free, if you look at the ingredient list, it has a preservative in it.
