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 recall as Class II, and the rubric specifies that FDA Class II recalls involving significant injury or property damage reports, or structural defects, are rated as Severe (4). While no specific injuries are reported in the text, the lack of sterility assurance in an injectable drug presents a significant risk of infection, aligning with the Severe category for high-risk medical products.
