FDC Limited is recalling 5,184 bottles of Timolol Maleate Ophthalmic Solution (0.25%), a sterile eye medication. The recall was initiated because the spike in the bottle cap may become stuck in the bottle nozzle, preventing the liquid from being dispensed. If you are treating a condition such as glaucoma, being unable to get the medicine out of the bottle could lead to missed doses and uncontrolled eye pressure. If you have an affected bottle, contact your doctor or pharmacist to discuss your treatment.
The defective container prevents the patient from accessing the medication, which can lead to missed doses. For patients treating conditions like glaucoma or high eye pressure, missing doses can result in a temporary loss of pressure control.
