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: FDA Class I classification applies due to the critical medication mix-up where patients expecting tirzepatide would receive testosterone cypionate instead. Although no illnesses or injuries are reported in the source text, the potential for serious harm from receiving an incorrect prescription medication is substantial and meets the agency's highest hazard classification.
