Albuterol Inhalation Solution Recalled for Lack of Sterility Assurance

Pharmacy Innovations is recalling nationwide Albuterol 0.083% inhalation solution in 3ML tubes due to insanitary manufacturing facility conditions that compromise sterility assurance.

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: This is an FDA Class II recall of a risk-of-harm product (inhalation medication for respiratory use) where no injuries have been reported. The hazard—lack of sterility assurance due to insanitary facility conditions—poses potential contamination risk, but no confirmed adverse events are documented in the source.
