What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: FDA Class II recall with no reported illnesses or injuries. The hazard—potential drawer and door failures causing medication access delays—represents a risk to patient safety but is theoretical rather than confirmed through reported incidents.
