Failed Content Uniformity Specifications: The product may not meet finished product release specifications, including the uniformity of dosage due to a packaging degradation related to the adhesive component of the paper pouch that can impact the level of fluorescein present in the strips.
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.
