Chinese Medicine: The Dangers of Deployment — The Impact on Pharmaceutical Regulatory and Quality Specialists
Do you have concerns about Chinese API’s and chemical intermediates? If so, you’re not the only one.
More than half of all valsartan products on the U.S. market have been recalled due to a probable cancer-causing chemical in the API. The recall shines a spotlight on growing U.S. and global dependence on China for APIs and chemical intermediates.
Talk of proposed tariffs on Chinese pharmaceuticals has raised concerns about the impact on the supply and price of drugs. Tariffs could be disruptive to the market since China is the sole global supplier of many APIs and chemical intermediates. Supply chain modification is burdensome and can affect quality and access to an unfettered supply.
