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: The recall is classified as FDA Class II. The hazard involves potential diagnostic errors due to fill volume variation, but no injuries, illnesses, or deaths are reported in the source text, fitting the criteria for a moderate severity recall.
Plain-English summary
MedtestDx, Inc. is recalling 79 kits of MedTest DX Control Reconstitution Fluid (Catalog number: HC-DIL, Lot: 072414-206, Expiration date: 2016-07). The product is an in vitro diagnostic reagent used to reconstitute Human controls HNC200 and HEC200. The kits were distributed nationwide in the United States.
The recall was initiated because of vial-to-vial variation in the fill volume. An under-fill of the vials was found ranging as low as 4.63 ml. When used to reconstitute the controls, this variation caused control values to be out of range, specifically running on the high end, which could affect control recovery issues.
Users of the product should stop using the affected lots and contact MedtestDx, Inc. for further instructions or a replacement.
