1 FDA recall names the code 88888-2014-37 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 sterility assurance;All lots of sterile products compounded by the pharmacy that are within expiry were recalled due to concerns associated with quality control procedures that present a potential risk to sterility assurance that were observed during a recent FDA inspection.
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.
