Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Teligent Pharma, Inc. is recalling approximately 14,688 units of Econazole Nitrate Cream 1% and Triamcinolone Acetonide Ointment USP 0.1% due to a packaging error where the products may be incorrectly labeled or placed in the wrong containers. Econazole Nitrate is an antifungal medication, while Triamcinolone Acetonide is a corticosteroid used for skin conditions. Using the wrong medication for your skin condition could result in ineffective treatment or unintended side effects. These prescription products were distributed nationwide in tubes and cartons with expiration dates of March 2023.

Risk

The products were mispacked, meaning a patient may receive the wrong medication. This could lead to a lack of treatment for the intended condition or adverse reactions from using a corticosteroid (Triamcinolone) when an antifungal (Econazole) is needed, or vice versa.

What You Should Do

  1. Check your medicine cabinet for Econazole Nitrate Cream 1% (85g tubes, NDC 52565-022-85) or Triamcinolone Acetonide Ointment USP 0.1% (80g cartons, NDC 52565-014-80) with Lot # 16630 and an expiration date of 03/2023.
  2. Compare the label on the outer carton to the label on the inner tube to ensure they match exactly and contain the correct medication prescribed by your doctor.
  3. If you identify a mispacked or incorrectly labeled product, stop using it immediately to avoid using the wrong medication.
  4. Contact your healthcare provider or pharmacist for guidance regarding your treatment and to report any concerns.
  5. Return any unused or mislabeled product to your pharmacy for a refund and contact Teligent Pharma, Inc. for further instructions.
  6. For additional questions or to report a safety issue, contact the FDA Consumer Complaint hotline at 1-888-723-3332 (1-888-SAFEFDA) or visit www.fda.gov/safety/recalls.
