Sun Pharmaceutical Industries Inc. is recalling 20,475 vials of Pantoprazole Sodium for Injection 40mg/vial, a medication used to treat stomach and esophagus problems. This recall was initiated because the product failed to meet quality specifications for impurities and degradation. Consumers should be aware that affected vials were distributed nationwide and include specific lot numbers and an expiration date of February 2021. Because this medication is administered by healthcare professionals, patients should contact their doctor or pharmacist if they believe they received this product.
The drug failed to meet specific chemical purity and stability standards, which means the medication may contain higher levels of impurities or degraded components than are safely allowed. This can reduce the effectiveness of the treatment or potentially cause unexpected side effects during intravenous infusion.
