Sun Pharmaceuticals new supplier
Our pharmacy was no longer able to get Mylan for our sinemet late last year, and was supplying everyone Activis (sp?)...when I asked, I was told they would be able to get Mylan again early in 2018. Great.
We just filled our script, and lo and behold, it wasn't Mylan, but Sun Pharmaceuticals. I googled Sun and found that they were slapped by the FDA in 2015, I think the issue actually involved levodopa formulations, but even if not, this didn't make us feel very good. What's worse, we read that they acquired some other drug company which also had been fined by the FDA.
I notice that these new pills from Sun Pharma are yellow ovals, like our old sinemet used to be, so I want to hope that they work as they're supposed to. But having read what I have, I'm concerned and wanted to see if anyone here has any experience with carbi/levo made by Sun, thanks!
