The Religious Freedom Coalition reports:
Upwards of 80% of prescription drugs from companies like Baxter and Johnson & Johnson are not made in the United States and there are no labeling laws requiring them to tell you that fact. Upwards of 80% of prescription drugs are manufactured overseas, most in China, in plants that are not inspected and often filthy. The drug Heparin is a blood thinner used by many people, including those on dialysis. Recently, some Heparin made in China has killed at least four people and caused allergic reactions in hundreds. The Wall Street Journal reported on the filthy conditions at a pig intestine processing plant that produces the raw materials for Heparin. The factory also makes sausage casings out of the same pig entrails. We deserve to know where our drugs are made. Please contact your congressman on this issue.
