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 recall is classified as FDA Class II. According to the rubric, 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 potential for serious harm from non-sterile injectable medications justifies a high severity rating under the Class II criteria.
