Customed Recalls Face Pack FJG Due to Potential Packaging Integrity Issues

Customed, Inc. is recalling Face Pack FJG surgical kits 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 (sterile surgical kits) where injury has not yet been reported, fitting the 'High' severity criteria for potential contamination or loss of sterility.
