Class II · Moderate risk
Fungal Fusion ERADICATION Solution
CGMP Deviations; the firm discontinued required stability testing for products on the market still within expiry
Lotrimin Af
Class II — Moderate risk. May cause temporary or reversible harm; serious harm unlikely.
Why it was recalled
cGMP Deviations: manufactured at the same facility where other lots were found to be contaminated with benzene.
Cause type: Chemical / undeclared
A chemical that should not be there - benzene, methanol, lead - or an undeclared prescription drug hidden in a supplement. The label gives no warning: you may be taking a toxic solvent, a heavy metal, or a drug such as sildenafil that interacts with your other medicines. All chemical / undeclared recalls.

Check, then ask. Class II means harm is possible but usually temporary or reversible. Find the lot number on your package; if it matches, ask your pharmacist about a replacement. Do not simply stop a prescribed medication on your own - the gap can be riskier than the recall. This recall is now terminated, which means the firm has finished removing the affected product; anything on pharmacy shelves today should be unaffected.
