FDA (Drugs) recall action 90183
The FDA (Drugs) publishes a recall like this one as 2 separate product records. They share a firm, a date and a cause; this page is all of them in one place, so the scale of the action is visible rather than spread across 2 pages.
Labeling: Label Mix-up: Bottle labeled as Benzonatate 100 mg capsules contained Benzphetamine 50 mg tablets and a bottle labeled as Benzphetamine 50 mg tablets contained Benzonatate 100 mg capsules.
The agency’s own wording, quoted from the enforcement report.
The unit total adds up the quantities the agency stated for each product. Where a product record gave no figure, or gave a weight rather than a count, it contributes nothing — so the real total is at least this, never less.
Benzonatate 100mg capsule bottles are mislabeled. Some contain Benzphetamine tablets instead, and vice versa. This medication mix-up affects 10 bottles distributed to one physician in Alpharetta, Georgia.
Calvin Scott & Company recalled Benzphetamine 50mg tablets due to a labeling error where bottles labeled as Benzonatate 100mg capsules contained Benzphetamine 50mg tablets and vice versa. One physician in Alpharetta, Georgia received 13 affected bottles.
