The incident described in the article was many years ago. I would imagine if the company was truly at fault it would no longer be in business. Don't know what to think but it is good of you to be careful!

I fully agree with you, but the driver behind this was - prior to my transplant I was taking valsartan for many years - until one fine day you read in the news that "Valsartan has been found to have minuscule carcinogenic ingredients..... ( many Pharmas. were involved - both domestic & foreign) ... & all of them are still operating - just a correction phase was initiated by FDA.

My nephrologist has issues with the Dr. Reddy brand as the levels of the drug can fluctuate and are inconsistent
