Golden State Medical Supply Inc. has voluntarily recalled two lots of Clobetasol Propionate Cream, USP, 0.05%, which were sold in 15g and 45g tubes. The recall was issued because a bulk lot used to manufacture these specific batches failed tests for content uniformity, meaning the medication may not be distributed evenly throughout the cream. This could result in a patient receiving too much or too little of the active ingredient in a single application. If you have this prescription medication, you should contact your doctor or pharmacist to discuss your treatment and return the product for a refund.
The failure in content uniformity means the concentration of the active steroid, clobetasol propionate, may vary significantly within the tube. This could lead to ineffective treatment of skin conditions if the dose is too low, or an increased risk of side effects if the concentration is higher than intended.
Pharmacy refund and healthcare consultation.
