PRODUCT RECALL

Description

A product recall in the pharmaceutical industry is a process of withdrawing or removing a drug from the market due to safety or quality concerns. This may occur if a drug is found to be ineffective, contaminated, or has potential side effects that outweigh its benefits. Recalls can be initiated by the manufacturer voluntarily or mandated by regulatory authorities like the FDA. The recall process involves notifying healthcare providers and patients, retrieving the affected products, and implementing corrective actions to prevent future occurrences. The goal of a recall is to protect public health and ensure the safety and efficacy of medications.
