The National Health Surveillance Agency (Anvisa) ordered, this Monday (5), the recall of batch 6802956 of Lavi Tea Chamomile Tea, from the Água da Serra brand, prohibiting its commercialization, distribution, dissemination and consumption. According to the agency, the measure occurred after the company reported the voluntary recall of the batch, after the detection of irregularities in its product.
“The test to identify histological elements (cells, tissues and extracellular matrix) showed the presence of stalks, branches and seeds that are not common in tea. The test to search for foreign matter detected 14 whole larvae and 224 insect fragments in 25g of product, with the acceptable limit being 90 fragments in 25g of product”, explained Anvisa in a note.
According to the agency, this fact highlights serious flaws in the process of good manufacturing practices for that batch.
Ointment
The manufacture, distribution, commercialization, dissemination, import and use of Inkdraw Aftercare Healing Ointment, indicated for post-tattoo use, was also prohibited. According to Anvisa, the origin of the product is unknown and there is no registration or notification of the ointment at the agency.
