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 rubric specifies that FDA Class II recalls involving significant injury or property damage reports, or structural defects, are Severe. While the source does not explicitly report injuries, the 'Lack of Assurance of Sterility' for an injectable product is a significant safety hazard that aligns with the Severe classification for Class II recalls involving potential serious harm.
