Haiti - FLASH : Recall of drugs containing Ranitidin 17/04/2020 09:36:59 This recall is being carried out in several countries as a precaution following the presence of a nitrosamine impurity called N-nitrosodimethylamine at low concentrations in the active substance used in the composition of batches based on ranitidine. Current evidence suggests that impurity may be present in ranitidine, regardless of the manufacturer or the commercial formulation. As such, the Ministry of Health advises all importers that no new application for import authorization will be granted for ranitidine-based products and requests holders of the Marketing Authorization to proceed with the immediate recall of these products to the market. Patients currently taking ranitidine containing medicines should refer to their doctor or pharmacist for other treatment options available. This measure is provisional and preventive and investigations are underway in collaboration with other international regulatory bodies. The Ministry of Public Health counts on the collaboration of all for the strict application of this measure which aims to guarantee consumer safety. HL/ HaitiLibre
