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: The FDA classified this as a Class II recall. According to the rubric, FDA Class II recalls involving significant injury/property-damage reports or hospitalization are rated as Severe (4). While specific injury reports are not detailed in the text, the 'lack of assurance of sterility' for an injectable drug represents a significant risk of infection, aligning with the Severe classification for Class II drug recalls.
