Adrenalin Chloride Epinephrine Nasal Solution Recalled for Misleading Label

Par Pharmaceutical is recalling Adrenalin Chloride Solution (Epinephrine Nasal Solution) due to a misleading label that resembles the FDA-approved Adrenalin epinephrine injection product, creating potential confusion.

The agency’s classification

FDA (Drugs): Class I

Class I is a situation in which there is a reasonable probability that the use of or exposure to a violative product will cause serious adverse health consequences or death.

This is the agency’s own classification, taken from its notice. The severity score below is our assessment, not the agency’s. How recall classes work

What this means for you

Our assessment, not the agency’s: severity 4/5 (Severe).

The hazard poses a serious risk of illness, injury, or structural failure. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.

Our severity reasoning: FDA Class I classification requires minimum severity of 4. Although no illnesses or injuries have been reported, the misleading labeling of an epinephrine product creates a real risk of medication confusion with serious health consequences possible.
