Class II U.S. Food and Drug Administration

Amgen, Inc. Sensipar Tablets, 90mg, 30-count bottles recall: CGMP Deviations

Recall published 4 months ago

CGMP Deviations

The hazard: Labelling or manufacturing-practice failure

The defect here is documentary: wrong strength on the label, a mismatched barcode, or records that do not demonstrate the product was made correctly.

What the notice says: CGMP Deviations

Why it matters: The label, the strength printed on it, the barcode or the manufacturing records do not meet federal requirements. The practical danger is someone taking the wrong drug or the wrong dose while believing they have the right one.

Symptoms and when to call a doctor

If you may have taken a product that turned out to be a different drug or strength from the one on the label, call your prescriber, and call Poison Control on 1-800-222-1222 if you feel unwell. Describe what the pack said and what you actually took.

This page is general information, not medical advice. If you feel unwell, a clinician who can see you is the only person able to judge your case.

What to do about Labelling

Amgen, Inc. — The defect here is documentary: wrong strength on the label, a mismatched barcode, or records that do not demonstrate the product was made correctly.

  1. Compare the lot number and strength on your pack with the codes above and with what your prescription actually says.
  2. Return the affected pack to the pharmacy for a replacement from a good lot.
  3. Report a mismatch to FDA MedWatch, especially if it reached you rather than being caught at the counter.
  4. If what you were dispensed does not match your prescription, call the pharmacy before taking another dose.

What the company owes you

A recalled medicine is the manufacturer’s cost to carry, not yours or your pharmacist’s.

  • The purchase price or co-pay is refundable, and so is the cost of returning the product if they ask you to ship it.
  • Ask the pharmacy to handle the claim where they can — they process recall returns in bulk and it saves you the correspondence.
  • Keep the carton, the leaflet and the pharmacy label together until the claim is closed.
  • Costs beyond the price of the medicine need to go to the company directly, in writing, with the recall number quoted.
