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 Labeling: Incorrect or Missing Lot and/or Exp Date:The expiration date has an extra digit and is printed as 2709114 instead of the correct 270914 (2027-09-14). It is important to note that this error is limited to the vial itself; the saleable unit of the box of 12 bottles has the correct expiration date printed.
