Summary

Company Announcement

Latin Foods Market is voluntarily recalling one lot, LOTE 334 21, of Artri King Reforzado con Ortiga y Omega 3 tablets to the consumer level. FDA analysis has found the product to be tainted with diclofenac and dexamethasone. Diclofenac and dexamethasone are both FDA approved drugs. Diclofenac is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) indicated for the management of pain and arthritis and dexamethasone is a corticosteroid indicated for a variety of indications including but not limited to arthritis. The presence of diclofenac and dexamethasone in Artri King Reforzado con Ortiga y Omega 3 renders it an unapproved drug for which the safety and efficacy has not been established and, therefore, subject to recall.

Risk Statement: Consumption of undeclared diclofenac could result in serious adverse events that include cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, renal, and anaphylaxis in patients taking concomitant NSAIDs and/or anticoagulants, in those who have allergies to diclofenac, or those with underlying illnesses. Consumption of undeclared dexamethasone may lead to severe and serious adverse events such as adrenal suppression, a disorder in which the adrenal glands do not produce enough hormones, and adverse consequences can range from limited adverse consequences to death. To date, Latin Foods Market has not received any reports of adverse events related to this recall.
