| Reason for the Action |
In July 2025, Petrus Pharmaceuticals conducted a recall following two reports of visible black particles found in lubricating gel from batch 243450 (RC-2025-RN-00640-1).
As a precaution, additional batches (254843 and 243515) are now being recalled. No complaints have been reported for these batches to date.
The presence of black particles in lubricating gel presents a potential hazard as it may cause irritation if applied. No actual harm has occurred in any reported complaints. |
