Where do you think that the bad Zantac came from in the first place?
It wasn't a bad batch. Ranitidine breaks down into NDMA when heated. Even brand name Zantac tests high in NDMA when heated. It's similar to the chemical in the bacon that is killing people.
Even if some say the meds we get are from India anyway, I will not take a chance. No one knows they come from India and if the do they are still controlled by our local companies. Anyone who feels comfortable ordering from India or some similar place don't come back and whine because you got gotten taken in, just hope you don't get sick or worse.

People have been getting meds from India to save money.
India buyers club: The new way for Americans to buy cheap drugs
Sure, there are legitimate manufacturers in India, I'm sure. The question is if one feels qualified to evaluate whether one's source is legitimate.
All someone in India has to do is buy a box and ship it. The pills should be in a labeled box with blister packs. The question will be how it is shipped. If it gets too hot it might start to break down.
About a year and half ago I needed to get some cheaper meds and talked to a local distributor for Canadian meds and purchased what I needed. She said that they do get some meds manufactured in India but my particular one was manufactured in Canada. Seems even Canadian sellers are selling meds from India.
Most of our generics come from India anyway. I got tired of waiting for Zantac to come back on the market so I found a site that sells the Indian version of it which they call Aciloc and sent $30 to someone with an Indian name for a 3 month supply with paypal.
I just googled Zantac, didn't know it was taken off the market. It won't be sold again because they say it causes cancer. I wonder if your package will be allowed through customs.
They did that with a med I used to take for arthritis but I can't recall what med it was.

US pharmacies are stocking generics from India and China
We leave it up to the FDA to certify
I have ordered from North Drug Store in Canada when Crestor and Zetia were not available as generics. I always called and would pick Canadian or UK manufacturer when available
Several times I was given choice of manufactured in Turkey and shipped from Turkey at MUCH lower price, always refused
I have friends in Yuma who go over to Mexico to pick up Rxs, I keep telling them that they are crazy. They have no clue what they are getting
Canada has great equivalent of FDA, Mexico doesn't

Shady "pharmacies" aren't able to produce blister packs?

I lived in Tucson for 7 years and once a year, one of the local TV stations would go down to Nogales, Sonora and randomly buy various popular drugs, bring them back and have them all tested in a lab to see if they are what they say they are, and if the dose is what it says it is.
And for the most part, every time they did this random testing, the drugs were indeed correct and the doses as well. Now, does that make all the drugs sold in Mexico that are bought by US citizens, mostly retired folk, real and/or the correct dose, no, of course not, but I wouldn't say all the drugs bought in Mexico are fake or a lethal dose.
