On July 12, 2011, the Government of Mexico initiated an antidumping and countervailing duty investigation on amoxicillin in trihydrate form from China and India.

These investigations were requested by Fersinsa GB, S.A. de C.V. This Mexican enterprise accounts for 100% of Mexico's production of this type of chemical.

The product subject to investigation is classified under the following item of Mexico's Harmonized System: 2941.10.12.

In accordance with the Mexican legislation, 90 days after the initiation of the investigation the authorities must issue a preliminary determination: (a) adopting preliminary antidumping or countervailing duties, (b) announcing the continuance of the investigation without imposing preliminary duties or (c) concluding the investigation due to lack of evidence.

In all cases, 210 days after the initiation of the procedures the Mexican authorities must issue a final determination. Through this decision, the Government will announce if this kind of product from China and India will face final antidumping and countervailing duties.
