Why these products were recalled

CGMP Deviations: Eloxatin was manufactured by Ben Venue Laboratories, a contract manufacturer, which was recently inspected by the agency and revealed significant issues in Good Manufacturing Practices.

The agency’s own wording, quoted from the enforcement report.

The unit total adds up the quantities the agency stated for each product. Where a product record gave no figure, or gave a weight rather than a count, it contributes nothing — so the real total is at least this, never less.
