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, and the rubric specifies that FDA Class II recalls with hospitalization reports or significant injury/property-damage reports are Severe. While the source does not explicitly mention hospitalizations, the 'Lack of Assurance of Sterility' for an IV injection is a significant hazard that aligns with the Severe criteria for Class II recalls involving potential serious harm.
