It is alarming to know that some drugs are made in China. How can a consumer know which drugs are made in China or other countries? I didn't realize the drug companies have gone the way of so many other USA industries. So little is made in the USA today. What a shame. Before we know it, our country will be the third-world country. China is winning a war to take over the USA every time they produce goods and services for us.

I want to where the drugs I am taking are made.

Johns Hopkins White Papers

  • 2010 Prescription Drugs White Paper
    Used inappropriately, prescription medicines may not help very much and can even cause harm. Understanding how prescription medicines are created, tested, marketed, and dispensed is important in order to maximize their benefits and minimize their risks. This White Paper will help you to be a more informed consumer of prescription drugs. It cannot tell you which medications are best for you; your doctor and/or pharmacist will offer guidance in using your own prescription drugs safely, cost-effectively, and to your greatest benefit. What you learn from this document will help you to ask the right questions and have a better understanding of the answers.
