Brief description of problem:
PilsCo Ltd. have identified a error relating to the wording on the outer carton label. The label affixed on the bottle states: ‘use within 2 weeks of first use’, instead of the correct label statement which should be: ‘use within 2 months of first use’.
The correct statement ‘use within 2 months of first use’ is printed on the patient information leaflet and on the carton.
Advice to Healthcare Professionals:
There is no risk to product quality as a result of this issue, therefore the affected batches are not being recalled. Healthcare professionals are advised to exercise caution when dispensing the product and instruct the patient to ensure they use the product within 2 months of first use.
