The reason drugs are so cheap in India is that it doesn't allow patents on medicine, by law. They feel it is immoral. This will change, as they have been pressured by the WTO. They reverse-engineer drugs and sell them for a profit. Viagra sells at a profit for 34 cents there, over $10 a pill here, just one example even a Republican can understand. Most of their plants are FDA certified, and some of the drugs you take may be made in India.
