What this means for you
Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.
Our severity reasoning: Scored 3 under the risk-of-harm criterion: a loss of sterility assurance in an injectable creates an infection risk, and no injuries are reported.
Plain-English summary
Fasenra (benralizumab) Injection, 30 mg/mL in a single-dose pre-filled syringe, manufactured by AstraZeneca AB in Sweden and distributed by AstraZeneca Pharmaceuticals of Wilmington, Delaware, is being recalled for lack of assurance of sterility.
The recall covers 916 pre-filled syringes from lot YJ0152, expiring 31 January 2028, carrying NDC 0310-1730-30. The product was distributed nationwide in the United States. The FDA has classified the recall as Class II.
Sterility matters for an injectable because the product is administered directly into the body. The enforcement record describes a loss of sterility assurance rather than confirmed contamination, and reports no injuries.
Patients holding a syringe from the affected lot should contact their pharmacy or prescriber about a replacement rather than stopping treatment on their own.
