From the standpoint of the Code, a subsidiary company is in the same category as its parent company. Lansinoh is owned by Pigeon, a notorious Code violator, and as such places Lansinoh in the same category. Therefore Lansinoh should not be appearing on the pages of the Journal of Human Lactation or in the exhibit hall at the ILCA conference.
