This recall is being initiated due to conditions at the manufacturing facility that cannot assure the sterility of the products. Products that are non-sterile have the potential to cause eye infections, which may be sight threatening.

Based on its investigation to date, US Oftalmi believes the likelihood of users experiencing a serious adverse reaction is remote. However, the company is taking a conservative approach and is conducting the recall in the best interest of its customers. This recall is being made with the knowledge of the Food and Drug Administration.

No adverse effects, illness or injuries have been reported to date. Any adverse reactions associated with the use of these products may also be reported to the FDA’s MedWatch Program by fax at 1-800-FDA-0178, by mail at MedWatch, FDA, 5600 Fishers Lane, Rockville, MD 20852-9787, or on the MedWatch website at HYPERLINK "/Safety/MedWatch/default.htm"www.fda.gov/medwatch.1

The company has ceased the production, importation and distribution of the products until further notice. Consumers who may have any of these products on hand are advised to discard them immediately. Consumers with questions may call US Oftalmi at (954) 338-6891 Monday through Friday 8AM to 4:30 PM EST.

The company is committed to taking all necessary measures to remedy these production issues, and protect the trust physicians and patients place in our products, said Corrado Ruscica, president. Products have been used safely since their introduction in 2004 and are supported by our 30-year heritage of meeting high safety and efficacy standards.
