Pan products has been suspended from trading, and products recalled through the therapeutic goods act in Australia. They manufacture products for other companies, and may include both local & international export products. It is advised by tga that any non essential products are not taken until they can provide further info. It is suggested that evidence indicates a lack of product testing, and inconsistencies in doses contained in each tablet. It does not affect any prescription medicines, only what are termed "complimentary" medicines/ vitamins.

This tga link lists all the products but not by brand, apparently the number corresponds with a number to be found somewhere on the product label???

I do not want to alarm cysters, but it's worth checking your vitamins/complimentary medicines with the list, just to be safe.

the current list of suspect product includes saw palmetto, starflower oils (borage), royal jelly, pregnancy & breastfeeding capsules, flaxseed oil, omega 3 & fish oils, and a number of vitamins, which is why i thought it was important to post. Obviously, it is going to take a couple of days to learn what brand names these involve, so it is possible your brand was not made by Pan pharmaceuticals. So far, there are only the numbers on the bottle/container to go by.
