Preferred Pharmaceuticals, Inc. is recalling 41 tubes of Econazole Nitrate Cream, 1%, a generic version of Spectazole used to treat fungal skin infections. The recall was initiated because the manufacturer, Teligent Pharma, Inc., is discontinuing its stability study program, which means the medication's effectiveness cannot be guaranteed through its expiration date. This recall affects products sold by Physician's Solution with an expiration date of January 1, 2023. No injuries or adverse incidents have been reported to date.
The discontinuation of stability testing creates a risk that the drug may not maintain its proper strength or quality until its expiration date. If the medication loses potency, it may fail to effectively treat the skin infection for which it was prescribed.
