Reason for recall

The affected products have approximately a 91% specificity while the non-affected lots have approximately a 99% specificity. The recalling firm is aware of three customers who reported false positive results.

Potency and specification recalls happen when a batch tests outside its approved limits for strength, purity or dissolution, which can mean the dose delivered is higher or lower than labelled.
