Potassium Chloride Injection
Correct Labeled Product Mispack: Shipping cartons labeled as containing Potassium Chloride injection actually contained bags labeled and containing Gentamicin Sulfate injection inside.
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.
