Customed Recalls Minor Extremity Packs Due to Potential Sterility Loss

Customed, Inc. is recalling Minor Extremity Packs because packaging integrity may be compromised, potentially leading to product contamination or loss of sterility.

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: The recall involves a risk-of-harm product (loss of sterility/contamination) where injury has not yet been reported, fitting the 'High' severity criteria for theoretical hazards without confirmed illness.
