What this means for you

Illness, injury, or structural failure has been reported. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.

Our severity reasoning: This is an FDA Class II recall involving a sterile compounded pharmaceutical product with a documented sterility assurance deficiency identified during FDA inspection. While no specific hospitalizations or reported illnesses are mentioned in the source text, sterility failure in an injectable or ophthalmic preparation presents a significant risk of serious infection and meets the Class II + inspection-identified defect threshold for a Severe rating.
