MANUFACTURER:

Medicine Shoppe
1567 N. Eastman Road
Kingsport, TN 37664

REASON:

All lots of Urokinase that have not exceeded the use by date are being recalled. The recall was initiated because the product has not been approved by the Food and Drug Administration, and therefore there is no assurance that the product is safe and effective for its intended use. The drug was also manufactured under conditions which are not in compliance with Current Good Manufacturing Practices which could increase the risk of transmitting infectious agents.


The information in this listing reflects CBER's best efforts to communicate information that has been reported to FDA. Its accuracy and comprehensiveness cannot be guaranteed.
