NEW DELHI - Johnson & Johnson’s baby shampoo samples failed quality tests conducted by the northwestern Indian state of Rajasthan, according to a public notice from the state’s drugs watchdog, findings that were rejected by the U.S. drugmaker.
This comes just a few months after Indian authorities launched an investigation into J&J’s Baby Powder to see if it contains cancer-causing asbestos. J&J said in late February it had resumed production of baby talc after government tests found no asbestos in the product.said that the samples of J&J's baby shampoo taken from two batches had failed the quality test as they contained"harmful ingredients". It did not elaborate.
“We do not accept the interim results given to us, which mentioned samples to ‘contain harmful ingredients- identification positive for formaldehyde,’” she told Reuters. The two batches of the baby shampoo tested are due to expire in September 2021 and were manufactured at the company’s plant in the northern state of Himachal Pradesh, according to the watchdog’s notice.
lIl_________Ill I need see on Brasil. Thank you

Formulations based on US or European conditions may have to be suitably modified to adapt for Indian Conditions. If not they have to respect our findings with suitable explanation.
I use their shampoo cause I’m a grown man and I don’t want to cry.
This is an unfair headline. The tests are intermediate and offered no specific conclusions — only labeled it a failure. Of course the company rejected it, there is no specific comment. Seems like a hit job.
and their baby powder.....oye
Company rejects findings. What is the basis of company's rejection? It is high time such companies stop snobbery? J&J has been sued for its product quality in US and the company has paid damages.
India conduct quality tests? And J&J failed? So how is J&J going to incentivize examiners?

More plastic please, I have a meeting in Scottsdale today... My eyes will be hit with so much plastic , I'll feel like I'm at a recycling bin.
