Description
AstraZeneca UK Ltd. has informed the MHRA that, following routine stability analysis, the printed expiry date for the listed batches of Fluenz Tetra nasal spray suspension is incorrect. Due to the outcome of the ongoing analysis, the expiry dates for batches TH2127, TH2127B, TH3110, TH3110B, TJ2290 and TJ2290B need to be reduced by up to 5 days as a precautionary measure. The products may be safely administered up to the amended expiry date.
