Why it was recalled

This recall is being conducted due to out of specification assay results in a limited number of bottles that were stored on side.

Wrong strength, or it did not keep

The product did not contain what the label promised, or stopped meeting specification before its expiry date. Under-strength medicine can mean an untreated condition.

This is a manufacturing or quality failure, not a finding that the medicine is unsafe to take — across every recall we hold, none was issued for that reason. It does not mean the batch was harmless.
