According to Grok, the X AI utility: "About 6-8% of U.S.-marketed drugs, by import value, come from China, per FDA and trade data. This covers finished drugs, not just APIs, though specific generics like ibuprofen can have much higher reliance (up to 95% in some cases). Precise percentages are murky due to complex supply chains and limited public data."
What is your estimate and what data are you using to support your supply chain alarm?
I am just trying to find some real forecasts about the interruption of drug supplies in the coming times. I need to be able to help my patients, and myself, and loved ones begin to take action to ensure our safety. This is very frightening for everyone who uses medications that control potentially life threatening conditions.
Apparently, there aren’t any “real forecasts” to be had here. My best guess is that it’s going to be drug specific as suggested by my comment in which ibuprofen has a substantial position in the Chinese Pharmacopoeia. The good news is that there are alternatives if it gets priced out of the marketplace. The other good news is that by definition a crisis is short lived.
This “crisis” (I don’t believe it really is) will be ended in several ways not in any order: 1) China comes to the negotiating table; 2) other sources are found; 3) production capacity will be made in the U.S.
I’m new here and didn’t see your earlier post. Do you think the US can produce vital medicines? Quantity etc. Right now tons of hospitals are struggling to get enough IV fluids (due to flooding) and there has been a real hesitation to discuss ramping up production
I assume that given the proper financial incentive everything that we need can and should be produced here but I have no idea which essential meds are being obtained from overseas. As consumers we seem to be left in the dark once again. But I will say this --- fear is the quickest way to profit and I deeply resent fear as a marketing technique.
I reached out to several people who will have access to information about drug availability. I’ll post it here I take several blood pressure meds and some heart meds. I can’t stop them. And I can’t afford to move to Australia.

That would be outstanding! Thank you.
Peter, love your work. We had a lead on this for you!

I just subscribed to Focal Points yesterday. How do I order your emergency kits?
