CHINA HAS BECOME THE BIGGEST PRODUCER OF PHARMACEUTICAL INGREDIENTS IN THE WORLD

Bayer, the German company that created aspirin in the 1890's is being produced in China. Rhodia, a company in France makes acetaminophen, which is found in Tylenol is closing down.

China is producing about two-thirds of all aspirin and will soon be the world's sole supplier.

We wonder if China's meds are safe ? If the big corporations are buying it, it's O K .But if an average person goes to Canada or Mexico to buy meds, the government says the meds are not safe.
