Medline Non-Sterile Syringes Recalled for Unapproved Device Configurations

Jiangsu Shenli Medical is recalling 178,400 non-sterile syringes sold under the Medline brand because the device configurations exceed what was cleared under the firm's FDA 510(k) application.

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 with no reported illnesses or injuries. The hazard is regulatory non-compliance—the devices' configurations exceed the FDA 510(k) clearance scope—rather than a specific safety defect. Per the rubric, recalls with no reported harm and theoretical hazards score at most 3, and this precautionary, compliance-based recall appropriately scores as 2 - Moderate.
