Description

Mylan UK has informed us that a small number of packs from the one batch may have an overcount or undercount of one tablet (i.e. 29 or 31 tablets in a 30 count bottle). Investigations to date indicate that this is due to a problem with the tablet counting mechanism during packaging of this particular batch. No other batches are believed to be affected.
