Yikes. Suddenly that cry of "The generic stuff is just as good!"
Are going to be drowned out by the "the generic stuff is made in barefoot factories in india with constant failed safety inspections!" And then we are all forced to buy marked up products.
Brand name stuff comes from the same factories. Pharmaceutical manufacturing has been completely outsourced mostly to avoid regulatory oversight.
My eye drops are made in Switzerland. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
