What this means for you

Highest-severity recall. Risk of serious injury or death is documented or strongly suspected. Stop using the product now and follow the agency's instructions.

Our severity reasoning: The agency classification is FDA Class I, which is defined as a situation where use or exposure to a product may cause serious adverse health consequences or death. Mislabeling one opioid as another is a critical hazard.

Plain-English summary

Shamrock Medical Solutions Group LLC is recalling Oxycodone HCl Oral Concentrate, 20 mg/mL, which was packaged and labeled as Morphine Sulfate 20 mg/mL. The product was originally manufactured by Lannett Co. Inc. and re-packaged by Shamrock Medical Solutions in Lewis Center, Ohio. The specific lot number is 002HZI, with a use-by date of 7/20/2013 and NDC 00527-1426-36.

The recall was initiated due to a labeling error where the product was misidentified. Although the label indicated Morphine Sulfate, the actual contents were Oxycodone HCl. Both are potent opioid analgesics, and the mislabeling poses a significant risk of medication errors.

The affected product was shipped to the states of Colorado, Massachusetts, Ohio, Texas, and Wyoming. Consumers and healthcare providers should check their inventory for this specific NDC and lot number. If found, the product should be returned to the pharmacy or supplier for disposal or credit.
