Consumers and health professionals are advised that Beijing Tong Ren Tang Australia in consultation with the TGA is recalling
Batch 16080020 and Batch 4080015 of Bronchi-cough Pills (qiguanyan
kesou tanchuanwan; AUST L 144659) due to contamination with substances
that pose an unacceptable risk to health.
TGA testing has found that both currently available batches of the product are contaminated with low levels of amygdalin. One batch (16080020) is also contaminated with very low levels of aristolochic acid. Both amygdalin and aristolochic acid are included in Schedule 10 to the Poisons Standard, which lists substances considered to pose an unacceptable risk to health.
There is no established safe exposure level to aristolochic acids, which have been linked to kidney problems and urinary tract cancers.
If you have any Bronchi-cough Pills, the remaining product can be returned to the place of purchase for a refund.
