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 is classified as FDA Class II, and the hazard involves a risk of harm (inaccurate medical test results) where injury has not yet been reported, fitting the 'High' severity criteria.
Plain-English summary
Ameditech Inc is recalling Alere iScreen Multi Drug Detection dip tests. The recall involves 67,300 units distributed nationwide in the United States and in Australia, France, Germany, New Zealand, Singapore, and Spain. The affected products include various configurations of the Alere iScreen Dx Multi-Drugs of Abuse Dip Test, such as 5-drug, 10-drug, and 12-drug detection panels.
The recall was initiated because various immunoassay enzymes failed product performance standards. As a result, the products do not consistently detect all calibrator and secondary compounds at the levels stated in the labeling. This performance failure could lead to inaccurate drug detection results.
Users of these products should stop using the recalled tests and contact Ameditech Inc for further instructions or a replacement. The recall covers all lots within their expiry dates.
