US EditionFDA warns CVS, Walgreens, other companies over unapproved eye products
- The FDA has issued warning letters to multiple companies, including CVS and Walgreens, regarding the manufacturing and marketing of unapproved eye products that can pose a risk to consumers. These products are illegally marketed and can be harmful to users due to their bypassing of the body's natural defenses.
- Some of the unapproved eye products recalled by the FDA contain silver, which can cause permanent discoloration of the skin or eye. These products are falsely marketed to treat various eye conditions such as conjunctivitis, glaucoma, and cataracts. Users may also delay or stop necessary medical treatments while using these unapproved drugs.
- The companies that received warning letters, such as CVS and Walgreens, have taken action by pulling the products off shelves and offering full refunds to customers. The FDA has given these companies 15 days to respond and make corrections to avoid legal action. The FDA will continue to investigate and ensure that violative products do not reach the market.
