The FDA has sent a warning letter to a New York-based #homeopathic medication maker of the natural products.
The FDA last week issued a warning letter to the #HomeoCareLaboratories facility in #Yonkers. The letter made clear that while the plant's products are labeled homeopathic, they still have to meet certain FDA standards and that inspectors had found shortcomings in the processes that would ensure that.
Homeocare Laboratories Inc Is located at 7 Odell Plaza, Suite 142 in Yonkers and the listed phone number is (914) 920-5991
The #FDA criticized the facility for not having processes to make sure that the ingredients it uses, including some that can be toxic like strychnine, meet standards for identity, strength, quality, purity and potency.
Among other problems, it found that the company did little in-process testing and and generally only tested finished products for microbiological #contamination, so couldn’t be certain of uniformity.
Warning letters, investigations and inspections arose after the FDA became concerned of reports of about potential adverse effects in #children who used homepathic remedies.
The FDA recently issued a consumer alert warning to parents to dispose of homeopathic teething tablets and gels because they posed a potential risk.
It said consumers should seek medical care immediately if their child experienced seizures, difficulty breathing, lethargy, excessive sleepiness, muscle weakness, skin flushing, constipation, difficulty urinating or agitation after using homeopathic teething tablets or gels.
