Medline Sterile Water and Saline Bottles Recalled for Leaking Peel-Foil Seals

Medline procedure kits containing Sterile Water and Sterile 0.9% Normal Saline bottles are being recalled because the bottles leak at the peel-foil and bottle opening interface.

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: This is an FDA Class II recall. The source text does not report any illnesses, injuries, or hospitalizations—only a product defect (leaking containers). The hazard is a labeling/packaging defect rather than a contamination or high-risk pathogen, making this a moderate-severity precautionary recall.
