21/04/2016
The marketing authorization holder informed its supplied customers in a letter dated 19.04.2016 that an error in the filling process was detected at the manufacturer. The error results in a few vials possibly containing a too high concentration. The too high concentration results from the partial evaporation of the solvent ethanol, but the total amount of active ingredient per vial is not affected. In Austria, this affects the two batches listed above, which are now being recalled.
