Compounded Injectable Recalled for Lack of Sterility Assurance

Vita Pharmacy, LLC dba Talon Compounding Pharmacy is recalling one lot of QUAD-MIX PAPAV 30/PHENTOL 2/PGE-1 20/ATROPINE 0.2 INJ injectable due to lack of assurance of sterility.

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 of a compounded injectable drug. Lack of sterility assurance in injectable products presents a serious infection risk, and injectables that lack sterility assurance fall under FDA Class II, which combined with the route of administration (injectable) and potential for serious harm justifies a Severe classification.
