The products involved are intended for companion, equine, exotic, zoo, wildlife, and aquatic animals.

Wedgewood Pharmacy LLC (“Wedgewood”) is recalling certain compounded veterinary medications within expiry at the provider/customer level due to inconsistencies in the reliability of certain analytical testing data generated by their laboratory, potentially resulting in subpotent and/or superpotent products.

The issue was discovered through Wedgewood’s own quality processes.
