Brief description of the problem
Aspire Pharma Limited is recalling the above batches of Bimatoprost Aspire 0.3mg/ml eye drops, solution in single dose container 0.4ml x 30 as a precautionary measure due to the identification of some variability in the thickness of plastic of the single dose containers resulting in some patients finding the containers difficult to squeeze due to increased hardness of individual containers.
