Akorn, Inc. is recalling all lots of various prescription and over-the-counter medications because the company has ceased operations and can no longer continue required quality and stability testing. This recall involves dozens of products including Sufenta (sufentanil citrate), Timolol Maleate eye drops, and various oral suspensions distributed under the Akorn, Hi-Tech Pharmacal, and VersaPharm brands. Because the firm can no longer guarantee that these medications maintain their strength and purity through their expiration dates, they may not work as intended or could pose health risks.
The manufacturer cannot ensure the drugs will remain stable and effective because all quality testing was stopped when the company went out of business. This lack of oversight means medications might lose potency or degrade before they are used, which could lead to treatment failure.
