Corporativo Bureli S.A. de C.V., Tepetlacalco, Mexico, has been issued a warning letter by the US Food & Drug Administration (FDA) after the US agency conducted testing of a consumer antiseptic rub drug product (a consumer hand sanitizer), labeled as Soho Fresh Hand Sanitizer, that was manufactured at the company’s facility. Following an attempt to import Soho Fresh Hand Sanitizer into the US, it was detained and refused admission at the border.
