Identifying features:

Name: ilium Methadone Injection

APVMA registration number: 63712

APVMA approved label number: 56141

Batch number: 240720

Sold by veterinary wholesalers in all states and territories between 15/10/2024 to 13/12/2024

On 13/12/2024, Troy Laboratories Pty Ltd (ABN: 000 283 769) initiated a voluntary recall under section 106

of the Agricultural and Veterinary Chemicals Code scheduled to the Agricultural and Veterinary Chemicals

Code Act 1994 in relation to the chemical product described above.

Reason for voluntary recall:

Some units of batch 240720 may not have a label on the bottle, although it is enclosed in a carton with all

relevant product information.

Hazard:

Unlabelled vials could potentially result in product being used for unintended purposes. However, vials

without labels are easy to identify immediately and due to the strict regulations surrounding use and record

keeping of schedule 8 drugs, the risk of unlabelled Methadone being used is very low. If the vial is labelled,

there is no risk, and the product does not need to be returned.

What to do:

Veterinary wholesalers and end users should check all stock on hand of batch 240720 for affected units

(i.e. unlabelled vials). If any unlabelled vials are found, please isolate the product and place in quarantine.

Troy (contact details included below) will provide advice on management of affected units and arrangements

for replacement.
