Pregnenolone 20 mg SR Capsules Recalled for Sterility and Stability Concerns

Health Innovations Pharmacy is recalling all lots of Pregnenolone 20 mg SR Capsules due to quality control issues affecting sterility and stability.

What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: The recall is classified as FDA Class II, and the source text explicitly states that the quality control issues present a risk to sterility and quality assurance, which aligns with the rubric for risk-of-harm products where injury has not yet been reported.

Plain-English summary

Health Innovations Pharmacy, Inc is recalling all lots of Pregnenolone 20 mg SR Capsules. The recall was initiated because recent inspection observations identified deficiencies in certain quality control procedures. These deficiencies present a risk to the sterility and quality assurance of the product, as the available stability data does not support the stated expiry dates.

The recalled product is distributed in North Carolina. Consumers who possess this medication should stop using it and contact their healthcare provider or the recalling firm for further instructions.
