Heritage Pharmaceuticals Inc. is recalling 408 bottles of Acyclovir Tablets (400 mg), a prescription medication used to treat viral infections. The recall was initiated because some bottles were distributed with incorrect or missing lot numbers and expiration dates on the labels. These affected products were distributed specifically in Ohio and were packaged in 150 cc white plastic bottles containing 100 tablets each.
Missing or incorrect labeling information prevents healthcare providers and consumers from identifying if a drug is part of a specific batch or has expired. Using expired medication can result in reduced effectiveness of the treatment, and the inability to identify specific lots hinders the ability to track safety issues.
