ActionOn March 9, 2015 the firm contacted its customers via telephone. Within that conversation the firm asked its customers to examine their inventory to determine if they have any of the affected lot numbers on hand and notify the firm for an immediate product substitution, credit or refund. Customers were asked to discontinue dispensing any product on hand, and notify any customers that the product may have been further distributed to. The firm also asked that the response form be completed and returned. If no contact was made via telephone, the firm sent a certified letter asking the firm(s) to do the same actions as the phone request.
