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 recall of a sterile medical device with compromised sterility assurance due to expiration. Although no illnesses or injuries have been reported, expired syringes present a direct risk of harm through loss of sterility and device integrity, which meets the High severity threshold for risk-of-harm products.
