Why these products were recalled

Crystallization: Product is being recalled due to visible particulates identified during a retain sample inspection. Findings have identified the particles as Carboplatin crystals.

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.
