Ministry of Health orders recall of common medication due to side effects
The Ministry of Health and the company "Medici Medical" issued an urgent public notice this morning regarding a voluntary recall of a medication marketed in Israel. The decision was made following reports of unusual side effects among patients who used the product.
According to the company's announcement, the recall applies to a specific batch of the medication. The reason for the decision is reports of hypersensitivity reactions that occurred with higher-than-normal frequency among users. This is a precautionary measure intended to ensure the safety and health of consumers.
The Ministry of Health has instructed pharmacies and pharmacy chains to immediately stop the sale of the relevant batch and return it to the company's warehouses. The public is asked to check the medication packaging in their possession and compare the batch number with the details published on the Ministry of Health's website.
Anyone who has the medication from the batch in question at home is asked to stop using it immediately and contact their attending physician or pharmacy for further instructions. The company emphasizes that this is merely a precautionary measure and that it is working in full cooperation with health authorities to address the issue as soon as possible.
