FDA recalls “substandard” COA FS Immune Booster Drug

The Food and Drugs Authority (FDA) has recalled popular immune booster drug COA FS after it found it to be unwholesome for human consumption.

A press release dated April 17,2020 and signed by the CEO, Mrs Delese A. A. Darko, the Authority said that upon further checks, the product has been found to contain Escherichia coli, a type of bacteria that normally lives in the intestines.

According to the FDA, laboratory analysis on random COA FS products picked from the manufacturing company and the market, showed it was not safe for consumption.

The FDA has, therefore, urged all in possession of the drug to return them since it is unfit for human consumption.

“In view of the above, those who are in possession of the product are being directed to return the product to the manufacturer, place of purchase or any of the FDA offices across the country,” the statement said.

Meanwhile, manufacturers of COA FS have begun withdrawing the products from the market following the order by the Food and Drug Authority (FDA)

“The Centre deeply regrets the inconvenience this exercise may cause its key partners and the general public,” it added.
