Class II · Moderate risk
Irinotecan Hydrochloride Injection
Superpotent Drug: a recent review of the USP revealed that an incorrect calculation was used to determine the amount of irinotecan to use in formulation which will result in an assay higher than the labeled claim.
Where to find this code. The NDC is printed on the pharmacy label and on the manufacturer's carton, usually as three groups of digits after “NDC”. The last group is the package size — two bottles of the same medicine can differ only in that group, and a recall may cover one but not the other.
