An overseas safety alert for a Lecheng medicine or device

How to check whether a safety notice affects the product you received and coordinate follow-up with your Lecheng hospital.

Practical notes·

Match the notice to your product

Save the original regulator or manufacturer notice. Compare the name, strength or model, lot or serial number, and market named in the notice with your hospital records and packaging. A warning, label change and formal recall are different actions.

Contact the dispensing hospital

Send the identifiers, dates of use and a copy of the notice to the treating hospital or pharmacy. Hainan’s rules require institutions to assess safety alerts and report them. A product subject to an overseas recall triggers a stop-use duty for the designated institution and notice to its distributor. Ask the hospital to confirm if your product is affected and provide instructions on follow-up and any return.

Get help where you are

If you have urgent symptoms, seek emergency care locally. Bring the product details and treatment record. Ask your treating clinician what to do about the next dose or device use; do not remove an implanted device or arrange an international return on your own.
