Affected products have a reduced viscosity and more closely resemble a lotion than a cream. These batches are being recalled as a precautionary measure.

Dispensaries are asked to quarantine all remaining stock and liaise with Quantum Pharmaceutical on the return process.

Patients using this product may experience issues with the application of the cream due to its consistency. However, this does not appear to have affected the product’s efficacy or pose a risk to patient safety. Affected patients should contact their dispenser for a replacement.
