Cyclophosphamide Injection Recalled for Package Insert Concentration Labeling Error

X-Gen Pharmaceuticals recalls Cyclophosphamide for Injection due to a labeling error in the Package Insert. Section 2.3 incorrectly lists the concentration as '20 mg per vial' instead of the correct '20 mg per mL'.

What this means for you

Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.

Our severity reasoning: FDA Class III recall involving a labeling error without reported illnesses or injuries. Per the rubric, Class III recalls typically score 1 or 2, and theoretical hazards without reported harm are capped at score 3. The concentration mislabeling on a chemotherapy package insert justifies a Moderate score.
