Vitamin manufacturer NBTY has made a $230 million bid to acquire
bankrupt vitamin maker Leiner Health Products, a deal which could
create the largest manufacturing operation in the US.
Leiner Health Products, a leading manufacturer of store brand
vitamins, minerals, and nutritional supplements, has seen a solid
financial performance in the first quarter of fiscal 2005 as its
new capital structure came into play.
Supplement maker Leiner Health Products has released results of an
analysis of its fish oil supplements to reassure consumers of the
safety of its products, following new findings that farmed fish
could be toxic for humans.
