Vita Pharmacy, LLC dba Talon Compounding Pharmacy is recalling TRI-MIX PAPAVERINE 30/PHENTOLAMINE 2/PGE-1 40 INJ injectable vials due to lack of assurance of sterility.

What this means for you

Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.

Our severity reasoning: The FDA has classified this as a Class II recall. The source states only a lack of assurance of sterility without reporting any actual illnesses or injuries, making this a precautionary recall rather than one with confirmed harm.
