Dr Reddy’s Laboratories informed that the company is recalling over 4,000 bottles of a generic drug in the United States.
The Hyderabad-based pharmaceutical company is recalling 4,320 bottles of Tacrolimus Capsules, which are used to prevent the body from rejecting an organ transplant. The pharma major is recalling bottles due to a packaging defect.
Dr Reddy’s Laboratories Inc, based in New Jersey, is recalling the affected lot due to the ‘presence of one Tacrolimus 1 mg capsule co-mingled in a bottle containing and labelled as Tacrolimus 0.5 mg capsules,’ according to the USFDA’s latest Enforcement Report.
The affected lot was manufactured at the company’s Bachupally-based manufacturing plant and distributed in the United States by its American subsidiary.
On February 8, this year, Dr Reddy’s began a nationwide Class II recall.
At around 12.42 PM, Dr Reddy’s was trading 0.28% lower at Rs4,428 apiece, against the previous close of Rs4,439.20 on NSE. The counter touched an intraday high and low of Rs4,444 and Rs4,401.25 respectively.
