InPen Smart Insulin Pen Recall Due to Incorrect Assembly

Medtronic MiniMed is recalling InPen smart insulin pens that may have been incorrectly assembled, potentially causing the insulin cartridge to not fit or the cartridge holder to be difficult to remove. Users without backup insulin could experience temporary hyperglycemia.

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: This is an FDA Class II medical device recall involving a malfunction that could prevent proper insulin delivery, creating a risk of harm (hyperglycemia) to diabetic patients. No illnesses or injuries are reported, but the potential for significant health consequences in insulin-dependent patients justifies a High severity rating.
