Subpotent Drug
Heritage Pharmaceuticals is recalling 0.2mg Desmopressin Acetate Tablets (100-count) due to subpotent drug levels. This means the medication may not work as intended when used as prescribed, potentially affecting treatment effectiveness.
The tablets contain subpotent drug levels, meaning they may not provide the intended medical effect. This could lead to treatment failure if the medication is not effective for the prescribed condition. However, the risk is not life-threatening under normal use.
Prescription users who have the specific 100-count bottle with lot number 220440A and expiration date 05/2024 are affected. Patients using this medication for conditions like diabetes insipidus or bleeding disorders are most at risk.
Check for the 100-count bottle labeled 'Desmopressin Acetate Tablets 0.2mg', manufactured by Heritage Pharmaceuticals with lot number 220440A and expiration date 05/2024.
Verify the product label includes the lot number 220440A and expiration date 05/2024.
The recall is due to subpotent drug levels, which may not work as intended. It is not safe to use if it has the specific lot number and expiration date mentioned in the recall.
The recall does not specify a remedy, so contact Heritage Pharmaceuticals or your healthcare provider for guidance.
Look for the 100-count bottle with lot number 220440A and expiration date 05/2024.
