Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Aviva Products is recalling approximately 689 gallons of veterinary hygiene products, including Aviva Pre-Milking Udder Wash, Chap Free Concentrated Teat Dip, and Sani-T-Dip. These products were manufactured using expired chlorhexidine gluconate, which may reduce the effectiveness of the antiseptic treatment. These products were distributed to retailers and end users primarily in Pennsylvania, Maryland, Michigan, and New York between August and October 2009. If you have these products in your inventory, you should contact your veterinarian or the manufacturer for guidance on returning the unused portions for a refund.

Risk

The use of expired active ingredients can result in a sub-potent product that does not provide the expected level of antiseptic protection, potentially failing to prevent infections in dairy livestock.

What You Should Do

  1. Identify if you have any of the following products in your inventory: Aviva Pre-Milking Udder Wash with Cocoa Butter and Chlorhexidine Gluconate (1-gallon bottles), Chap Free Concentrated Teat Dip (1-gallon bottles), or Sani-T-Dip (1-gallon bottles).
  2. Check your product labels for the specific recall numbers: V-001-2010 (Udder Wash), V-002-2010 (Chap Free), or V-003-2010 (Sani-T-Dip).
  3. Contact your healthcare provider, veterinarian, or pharmacist for guidance regarding the use of these batches.
  4. Return any unused product to the place of purchase for a full refund or contact Aviva Products at 3501 Wyoming Drive South, Sinking Spring, Pennsylvania, 19608, for further instructions on disposal and reimbursement.
  5. For additional questions or to report adverse events, contact the FDA’s Center for Veterinary Medicine at 240-276-9300.
