Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

McKesson Corporation has recalled 42 units of Cabtreo (clindamycin phosphate, adapalene, and benzoyl peroxide) Topical Gel (1.2%/0.15%/3.1%) because it was stored at room temperature instead of being refrigerated as required. The recall affects 50g tubes from lot 7001796 with an expiration date of May 31, 2025. This medication is used for the treatment of acne, and improper storage may have compromised its stability.

Risk

Exposing the medication to room temperature instead of constant refrigeration can cause the ingredients to degrade. This could make the gel less effective at treating skin conditions or potentially cause skin irritation.
