Med-Pharmex, Inc. is recalling approximately 103,486 bottles of Mometavet Otic Suspension (gentamicin sulfate, mometasone furoate, and clotrimazole) and related brands including PattOtic and Malmetazone. The recall is due to a packaging defect that causes the medication to leak through the applicator cap. These products were distributed to clinics and pharmacies in 7.5g, 15g, and 30g bottles during mid-2018. Consumers should contact their veterinarian or pharmacist for guidance regarding any leaking or affected bottles.
The packaging defect allows the liquid medication to leak from the applicator cap. This can lead to inaccurate dosing for the animal or accidental skin exposure for the person administering the medication.
Full refund or replacement through pharmacist or manufacturer
