F.D.A. Searches Drug Maker OfficesNEWARK, Feb. 16 (AP) — The generic drug developer Ranbaxy Laboratories of India said Thursday that federal agents had searched its offices and a manufacturing facility in New Jersey. Paper and electronic documents were taken in the raids, conducted primarily by the Food and Drug Administration, said Charles Caprariello, vice president for corporate communications and government affairs for Ranbaxy. The searches took place Wednesday at the North American headquarters of Ranbaxy in Plainsboro and at a manufacturing facility in New Brunswick, Ohm Laboratories, Mr. Caprariello said. The company is cooperating and providing the agency with material “even today,” he said. Mr. Caprariello said the searches were a surprise and that the warrant did not appear to indicate what agents were interested in. An F.D.A. spokeswoman, Cathy McDermott, referred inquiries to the Justice Department, where a spokeswoman, Marsha Murphy, said, “We don’t comment on ongoing investigations.” Ranbaxy, India’s largest pharmaceutical company and one of the world’s largest generic drug producers, has been operating in the United States since 1995 and has approvals to make 119 drugs, about 40 of which are produced at Ohm Laboratories, Mr. Caprariello said.
