Plain-English summary
Apotex Corp. is recalling Enoxaparin Sodium Injection, USP 100 mg/mL Single Dose Syringes with Automatic Safety Device. The recall involves 6,670 cartons of the product, which was distributed nationwide. The specific batch affected is CS008 with an expiration date of 04/2022.
The recall was initiated due to a labeling mixup. Some syringe barrels may contain markings for 150 mg/mL (corresponding to 120 mg/0.8mL strength) instead of the correct 100 mg/mL markings. This discrepancy could lead to dosing errors if the incorrect markings are relied upon.
