Judd Gregg: “If I could inquire further, that is the essence of the difference. The FDA does not deem them to be exactly the same…”

On the recordJuly 11, 2006
If I could inquire further, that is the essence of the difference. The FDA does not deem them to be exactly the same because the FDA cannot certify their efficacy and safety. That is why the FDA has said that because they are not manufactured here, because they do not have control over the manufacturing process, because they do not know how they have been adulterated or may or may not have been adulterated or how they have been synthesized, they are not going to approve drugs coming into this country. So there is a significant difference between what someone buys overseas and what someone buys in America.
