Plain-English summary

Premier Pharmacy Labs Inc is recalling 86 syringes of Dexamethasone Sodium Phosphate Preservative Free Sterile Solution for INJ, 24mg/mL, 1mL Sterile Single-Use Syringe. The product is identified by NDC 69623-252-10 and barcode 0 69623 25210 4. The recall covers all lots remaining within their expiry dates.

The recall was initiated because an FDA inspection identified insufficient environmental controls, potential cross-contamination, and a lack of product-specific process validations. These deficiencies may result in a lack of sterility assurance for the affected medication.

The product was distributed nationwide in the USA. Consumers and healthcare providers should stop using the recalled syringes and contact their pharmacist or the recalling firm for further instructions.
