Plain-English summary
Universal Meditech Inc. is recalling PrestiBio URINALASYS TEST STRIP 10 PARAMETERS REF 900-10, a diagnostic urinalysis test strip distributed in California, Florida, Illinois, Louisiana, New Jersey, New York, Texas, Wyoming, and Taiwan. The recall affects all products manufactured after March 2021.
The devices are being recalled because the firm cannot provide required manufacturing documentation demonstrating compliance with FDA quality standards.

As a result, the devices may have unknown performance characteristics and the firm cannot verify they are safe and effective.
Additionally, the firm was distributing these devices without marketing authorization and is ceasing operations. The firm states it cannot fulfill post-market responsibilities including monitoring for safety issues or responding to adverse events.
Consumers and healthcare providers who have these test strips should discontinue use. If you have questions, contact Universal Meditech Inc. or consult your healthcare provider.
