The Main Pharmaceutical Inspectorate withdrew three series of popular nasal drops from the Polish market. This is once again when Sulfarinol has to disappear from pharmacies. Do you have it in your home medicine cabinet? These drops must not be used.
Sulfarinol – drug withdrawal from the market
A week ago, we informed about the recall of four series of these drops – more details HERE.
GIF has issued a new decision regarding the drug Sulfarinol. Another three series of the product were withdrawn from the market throughout the country. A quality defect was found in them.
A series of Sulfarinol 50 mg +1 mg / l nasal drops are disappearing from pharmacies:
- batch number: 041017, expiry date: 10.2020
- batch number: 051017, expiry date: 10.2020
- batch number: 061017, expiry date: 10.2020
The entity responsible for the drug, Farmaceutyczno-Chemiczna Spółdzielnia Pracy GALENUS, reported to GIF that a quality defect was detected in the samples – it was about contamination of the drug. It was decided that subsequent series must be withdrawn from sale. The decision was made immediately enforceable.
When is Sulfarinol used?
