HC Deb 20 November 1967 vol 754 c241W
92. Mr. Fortescue

asked the Minister of Health whether he has yet received an assurance from the Dublin firm, whose name has been sent to him, that they have withdrawn from circulation the batch of drug labelled ampicillin but known to contain not ampicillin but penicillin V; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Snow

Yes. The firm disputes the reported analysis but has informed me that each purchaser has been asked to return remaining supplies of the batch concerned and that these are being sent to independent analysts.
