Ameditech ProScreen 10 Drug Panel Cassette Test Recalled for Reduced Reactivity

Ameditech is recalling ProScreen 10 Drug Panel Cassette Tests because they may show reduced reactivity for specific benzodiazepine compounds.

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 III, which is defined as unlikely to cause adverse health consequences. The hazard involves reduced reactivity for specific compounds, which is a functional defect rather than a direct physical injury risk.
