The affected batch is  

Batch No. Expiry Date Pack Size First Distributed
MD4L07 01/2028 28 10/04/2025

This is a precautionary measure due to an error in the strength of the product printed on some of the faces (sides) of the product carton. Affected packs of 20mg tablets are incorrectly labelled as 10mg on some sides of the product carton.  

Dispensary teams are asked to quarantine all stock and return it to your supplier using your supplier’s approved process.
