Colonia Care Pharmacy is recalling six total units of Tacrolimus and Cyclosporine ophthalmic (eye) drops because they cannot guarantee the products are sterile. Using non-sterile eye drops can lead to serious eye infections or other health complications for the pets receiving these patient-specific prescriptions. These products were distributed in droptainer bottles of various sizes (5 mL, 10 mL, and 15 mL) and were dispensed as individual prescriptions.
If an eye medication is not sterile, it may contain harmful bacteria or fungi that, when applied to the eye, can cause severe infections, inflammation, or permanent vision damage. No injuries or adverse events have been reported to date, but the lack of sterility assurance makes these products unsafe for use.
