Avantor recalls bulk magnesium chloride API (NDC 10106-2448-1) due to subpotent drug risk. Affected lots may not meet required potency levels for pharmaceutical use.
Subpotent drug
Avantor is recalling bulk magnesium chloride (6-hydrate) API products because they may not contain enough active ingredient. This could affect the effectiveness of medications if used in pharmaceutical manufacturing.
The magnesium chloride API may have lower-than-stated potency levels. This means it might not provide the required amount of active ingredient for drug formulations, potentially leading to ineffective medications.
Pharmaceutical manufacturers using this magnesium chloride API for drug production are likely affected. Those handling the product without proper quality checks may be at risk of ineffective medications.
Check for NDC 10106-2448-1 on the product label. The product was manufactured in Lot 23G3161005 and expires September 21, 2027.
