- Dylan16807 7y agoThis seems like a different issue. "Pharma companies" are the producers, and in this case they're just denying the issue. Pharmacies, on the other hand, can only do so much. Much like a car dealer can't properly ensure the reliability of the cars they sell.
- gumby 7y agoUmm, I read that article three days ago and again due to your posting it. The branded products didn't have the problem. Sandoz and GSK are pulling their products anyway which you could take either way. I am somewhat surprised to find myself defending big pharma and this event is only recently reported so we'll see how it turns out. But for now I think my example holds.
