DS's are some of the dodgy ones - probably wouldn't have known about it nearly so quickly if not for you OP, thankyou Smile Thanks

So glad the information was useful MissMilliment. We have Epi-pens rather than Jext but I know lots on here use Jext so wanted to make sure that as many as possible knew about the recall. Hope you manage to sort out replacements quickly.

Received a letter about this today from the chemist who dispensed our jext. They turned out to come from the did batch.
