The drug Oracefal® 250 mg / 5 ml, powder for oral suspension is an antibiotic used mainly to treat respiratory tract infections and ENT infections in children. The drug is administered after reconstitution with water using a measuring spoon.
A few days ago, a mother reported to her pharmacist the presence of a piece of glass in a bottle of Oracefal® 250 mg / 5 ml, powder for oral suspension. The decision to recall this lot by the laboratory, in agreement with Afssaps, follows this report. After a visit to the hospital, the child was judged to be in good health and did not show any effects following the intake of the drug.
This batch of medication has not been distributed in pharmacies since January 25, but if you are in possession of a bottle of batch 9J56684 (expiration 09/2012), you should not use it under any circumstances, but return it to your pharmacist.
