| Issue: | The manufacturer has observed that the current shelf-life claims of the ETEST Ceftriaxone TXL32 products are not supported by internal testing. As a result there is a potential for an overestimation of the MIC values for specifically Neisseria gonorrhoeae. No increase of the complaint trend was observed for these products, but the manufacturer is taking the precaution of revising the shelf-life claims. |
