What’s wrong with it?
The products are prescription medications that were labeled and distributed by Dr. Reddy’s for institutional use only. The prescription medications were distributed by third party wholesalers to retail pharmacies and could have been dispensed to consumers. The packaging of the products is not child resistant and can pose a risk of poisoning if the contents are swallowed by young children.
