SUN PHARMACEUTICAL INDUSTRIES INC is recalling 69,024 tubes of Fluocinonide (USP, 0.05%) cream due to testing showing the product's thickness (viscosity) is higher than required specifications. The recall affects 15g, 30g, and 60g tubes manufactured by Taro Pharmaceuticals. This defect was discovered during stability testing and may affect how the cream is dispensed or applied. No injuries or incidents have been reported in connection with this issue.
The cream's viscosity is above the specification limit, which may alter the physical consistency of the medication and potentially impact the patient's experience during application.
