Brief description of the problem
Neon Healthcare Ltd is recalling the specific batch mentioned in this notification as a precautionary measure.

Advice for healthcare professionals
Stop supplying the above batch immediately. Quarantine all remaining stock and return it to your supplier using your supplier’s approved process.

Advice for patients
No further action is required by patients as this is a Pharmacy and Wholesaler level recall. Patients who experience adverse reactions or have any questions about the medication, should seek medical attention. Any suspected adverse reactions should also be reported via the MHRA Yellow Card scheme.
