Kilitch Healthcare India Limited is recalling approximately 3,518,460 bottles of various lubricant and relief eye drops sold under several major brands, including CVS Health, Target Up&Up, Rite Aid, Leader (Cardinal Health), Rugby, Equate (Walmart), and Velocity Pharma. The affected products include various formulations like Carboxymethylcellulose Sodium and Propylene glycol that were found to be non-sterile. This lack of sterility was discovered during an FDA inspection that found insanitary conditions at the manufacturing facility.
Products used in the eyes are required to be sterile because the lack of sterility poses a significant risk of eye infections. Such infections can lead to serious complications, including partial vision loss or permanent blindness.
