Premier Pharmacy Labs Recalls NeoStigmine Syringes Due to Sterility Concerns

Premier Pharmacy Labs is recalling NeoStigmine Methylsulfate syringes because routine testing of other lots detected microbial contamination risks.

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 as FDA Class II and involves a risk of microbial contamination in a sterile injectable drug, which aligns with the rubric criteria for Severe severity.

Plain-English summary

Premier Pharmacy Labs Inc is recalling 600 single-dose syringes of NeoStigmine Methylsulfate (1 mg/mL), 3mg per 3mL. The affected product is identified by Lot NEO022218SVDS and has a beyond-use date of 8/21/2018. The product was distributed nationwide in the USA.

The recall was initiated due to a lack of assurance of sterility. Microbial contamination was detected during routine testing of subsequent, unreleased product lots. This issue was caused by an interaction between the product syringe and the tamper-evident container closure, which may result in the potential introduction of microorganisms into the products.

Healthcare providers and patients should stop using the recalled syringes and contact their pharmacist or the recalling firm for further instructions.
