Apothecary Shoppe Recalls Papaverine and Phentolamine Injection Due to Sterility Concerns
The Apothecary Shoppe is recalling specific vials of Papaverine and Phentolamine Injection because documentation for environmental monitoring during production was missing.
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, and the hazard is a documentation issue regarding environmental monitoring rather than a confirmed contamination or reported injury, fitting the criteria for a moderate severity precautionary recall.
Plain-English summary
The Apothecary Shoppe LLC is recalling SIU-Papav/Phentol 30/.5 mg/mL Injection, a prescription-only medication available in 3 mL vials. The recall affects Lot # 04082015@37, which had a beyond-use date of October 5, 2015. The product was distributed in Oklahoma.
The recall was initiated due to a lack of assurance of sterility. The company identified that proper documentation of environmental monitoring was missing during the time the medication was produced. This documentation gap prevents verification that the sterile conditions required for the product were maintained.
Patients who have received this specific medication should contact their healthcare provider for guidance. The recall is classified as FDA Class II, indicating a reasonable probability that use of the product may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences.
