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 by the FDA as Class II. Although no illnesses or hospitalizations are reported in the source text, a sterility assurance failure in an injectable drug—particularly an opioid administered directly into the body—carries inherent serious risk of infection and potential hospitalization. Class II status combined with the route of administration and risk profile justifies a Severe rating.
