| Issue: | The manufactuere has identified that the current convention for interpreting the expiry date for when only the year and month are printed on the label is to consider the product safe to use until the end of the printed month. During a software update in the production facility, the expiry date that was printed on the certificate was modified to show the YYYY-MM-DD format. This same modification was not carried over to the product labeling thus creating a discrepancy on the date format between the product labeling and the product certificate. |
