Reason for recall

Lack of Assurance of Sterility: FDA inspection identified GMP violations potentially impacting product quality and sterility.

A sterility recall means a product that must be sterile, such as an injection or eye drop, may be contaminated. Using a non-sterile product can cause serious infection.
