ProPublica (an independent, non-profit news organization) recently reported on the FDA’s handling of potential safety issues concerning generic drugs we get from overseas manufacturers. Some of their findings include:
· For decades, the FDA has blacked out the names of generic drugs on inspection reports for foreign factories that were found to have safety and quality violations.
· This has prevented patients, doctors, and pharmacists from knowing whether manufacturing failures have made medications ineffective or unsafe.
