Taiwan orders recall of schizophrenia drug ABILIFY
Taiwan’s FDA announces a recall of Otsuka America Pharmaceutical’s ABILIFY tablets due to contamination concerns after a notification from the U.S. FDA. The recall affects 1.789 million tablets of 5mg and 30mg doses across three batch numbers, used for treating schizophrenia and other disorders, after unclean production lines led to potential mixing with other pharmaceutical ingredients.
