1 FDA recall names the code 42852-0725-61 directly. A recall still applies to particular lot numbers — compare the lot on your package with the FDA notice below, and talk to your pharmacist before stopping a prescribed medication.
This code is not in the current FDA NDC directory — usual for a product that has since been discontinued or repackaged. The details below come from the recall notices themselves.
Lack of Assurance of Sterility
Labeling; Label Error on Declared Strength; label incorrectly states the concentration as 50 mg/50 mL (1 mg/mL) rather than the fully accurate concentration as 50 Units/50 mL (1 Unit/mL)
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.
