According to a recent FiercePharma article, Canada’s largest  generic drugmaker Apotex has issued a voluntary recall of six batches of its glaucoma medication brimonidine tartrate ophthalmic solution due to concerns about potential contamination during the manufacturing process. In a statement, Apotex detected the sterility issue during its own routine quality control checks, and no adverse events have been reported.
