US Compounding Inc. is recalling 38,290 units of Misoprostol veterinary products, including various oral suspensions and pastes, because they are sub-potent. The medication was formulated using a 1% diluted active ingredient instead of the intended 99% potency ingredient, meaning the finished medicine contains significantly less active drug than required for treatment. These compounded veterinary products were distributed in 11 states and include both 2 mg/5 mL and 1.4 mg/10 mL suspensions, as well as several concentrations of Misoprostol pastes in 30 mL and 60 mL containers.
Because the medication is significantly weaker than intended, it will not provide the necessary therapeutic effect for the animal. This sub-potency can lead to treatment failure for the underlying condition the Misoprostol was prescribed to manage.
