The Food and Drug Administration as ordered a recall of 410,000 cans of the popular Japanese indigestion medicine Ohta's Isan.
The move comes after discrepancies were found between its Chinese and Japanese ingredient labels.
37 batches across three product sizes have been ordered recalled by September 18 after a consumer reported that the Japanese labeling of active ingredients on the outer packaging did not match the approved Chinese version.
The affected batches include 16 batches of the 75 gram product, 16 batches of the 140 gram product, and five batches of the 210 gram product.
The over-the-counter drug is imported by Yuo Shiang Industrial.
The F-D-A says the distributor must complete the recall and submit a corrective report by September 18, or face a fine of up to 5-million N-T under the Pharmaceutical Affairs Act.
