What should you do? A recall doesn't always mean your specific bottle is affected - it often applies to certain lots only. Check the lot number on your package against the FDA notice, and talk to your pharmacist before stopping any medication.
Reason cGMP Deviations: Potential glass contamination
Reason Lack of Assurance of Sterility
Reason Lack of Assurance of Sterility
Reason Penicillin Cross Contamination: All lots of all products repackaged and distributed between 01/05/12 and 02/12/15 are being recalled because they were repackaged in a facility with penicillin products without adequate separation which could introduce the potential for cross contamination with penicillin.
Reason Lack of Assurance of Sterility: Franck's Lab Inc. initiated a recall of all Sterile Human Drugs distributed between 11/21/2011 and 05/21/2012 because FDA environmental sampling revealed the presence of microorganisms and fungal growth in the clean room where sterile products were prepared.
