Reason for recall

Failed Impurities/Degradation Specifications: This recall is due to out of specification for impurities test results obtained during stability testing for Lansoprazole.

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.
