B+L recalls solution lots

Bausch+Lomb has voluntarily recalled three lots (C9116, C9009 and C9048) of ReNu Multi-Purpose Solution in Europe, Guadeloupe, Martinique and Reunion.

Routine testing showed these lots may not meet all specification criteria at the end of shelf life (C9116 and C9009 - March 2011, C9048 - April 2011).

The company stated that no other B+L products, or lots of ReNu, were affected by the quality-related recall, which was initiated when its Stability Monitoring Program, designed to identify potential problems, showed that the performance trend of certain lots did not meet its expectations. B+L added that the recall was being conducted as a precaution, with no indication of a safety or efficacy issue, with no reported adverse events.
