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 agency classification is FDA Class II. The hazard involves the administration of an inappropriate dosage of epinephrine to children, which is a significant injury risk.
Plain-English summary
Bound Tree Medical, LLC is recalling 7,063 Curaplex Epi Safe Kits (Model 8600-01101) distributed nationwide in the USA. The kits contain a 1ml vial of epinephrine, an Epi-Safe Syringe, a safety needle, alcohol prep pads, an adhesive dressing, and an insert. The recall covers all lot numbers.
The recall was initiated because the Instructions for Use (IFU) recommend a midpoint dosage of epinephrine of 0.15mL for children between 0 and 66 lbs. This dosage has not been approved by the FDA for children. Reliance on these instructions may result in the administration of an inappropriate dosage of epinephrine to young children experiencing anaphylaxis, particularly those under 33 lbs. Additionally, the Epi-Safe syringe lacks the correct markings to allow a health care provider to draw up the correct dosage for children under 33 kg.
Consumers should stop using the affected kits and contact their healthcare provider or the recalling firm for further instructions.
