Why is it being recalled? 

Fusion Health Viraforce contains Andrographis paniculata (Andrographis). The TGA has removed Andrographis from the list of ingredients permitted for use in listed medicines in Australia due to the risk of severe allergic reactions, including anaphylaxis.  

Following this decision, Fusion Health is recalling all Viraforce products that remain within expiry. For more information, visit the TGA website.

Health information

Anaphylaxis is the most severe type of allergic reaction and is a medical emergency. It requires immediate treatment with adrenaline, also known as epinephrine. Delayed treatment can be life-threatening. 

Andrographis-related anaphylaxis reactions are unpredictable. They can happen the first time someone takes the ingredient or after taking it previously without any issue.

What should I do if someone may be experiencing anaphylaxis? 

If someone is suspected of having anaphylaxis, call for emergency medical help immediately by dialling 000. 

If you have concerns about your health or your use of this product, please consult your healthcare professional.
