Drugmaker Akorn recalls all of its products after bankruptcy

CHARLOTTE, N.C. (WBTV) – Drugmaker Akorn is voluntarily recalling all of its products after the company filed for bankruptcy earlier this year.

This covers everything from nasal sprays and artificial tears to ointments and Vitamin D supplements.

The company says it provided human and pet medications nationwide to wholesalers, retailers, manufacturers and medical facilities, and via the internet to consumers.

Akorn went bankrupt back in February and says its Quality program, which helps to check and regulate medications, was also stopped.

While no problems have been reported, Akorn is encouraging people to get rid of any medications with their labels.
