CHINA SYNDROME: Popular heartburn drug Zantac pulled off market. “The FDA recently announced that ranitidine, sold over-the counter as Zantac, contains low levels of a substance that could cause cancer. In the past year, the same chemical found in Zantac —NDMA–was discovered, in the blood pressure medication—Losartan, prompting a major recall.”
Is it time to look harder at whether the US should import drugs made in China?
