Cileste, TriCilest und Vivelle
The marketing authorization holder informed its supplied customers in a letter dated June 3, 2013, that in the course of stability tests after 24 months of storage, non-specification-compliant results were found for a batch of Cileste in the dissolution test of Norgestimat. All other test parameters were within your specification. As TriCilest and Vivelle also contain the active ingredient norgestimate, batches of TriCilest and Vivelle are therefore being recalled as a precautionary measure in addition to Cileste. The product is being recalled at the level of the wholesalers and institutional pharmacies supplied.
