Health Innovations Pharmacy Recalls DHEA Capsules Due to Sterility Concerns

Health Innovations Pharmacy is recalling DHEA 10 mg SR Capsules because inspection findings indicate a lack of assurance regarding sterility and stability data.

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: The recall is classified as FDA Class II, but the source text does not report any hospitalizations, injuries, or illnesses. The hazard is based on inspection observations regarding quality control and sterility assurance rather than confirmed adverse health events, fitting the criteria for a moderate severity score.

Plain-English summary

Health Innovations Pharmacy, Inc. is recalling DHEA 10 mg SR Capsules. The recall was initiated following recent inspection observations associated with certain quality control procedures.
