1 FDA recall names the code 68968-6637-01 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.
Defective Delivery System: no longer meets the specification for shear, an attribute related to the adhesive properties of the transdermal patches. As a result, patients could experience patches that do not stick well to the skin.
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.
