Labeling: Incorrect or Missing Lot and/or Exp Date
Hydromorphone HCl 1 mg/mL PF INJ. 1mL in a 3mL Sterile…
Class II — Moderate risk. May cause temporary or reversible harm; serious harm unlikely.
Why it was recalled
Lack of Assurance of Sterility:Microbial contamination was detected during routine testing of subsequent unreleased product lots due to interaction between the product syringe and tamper evident container closure, which may result in the potential introduction of microorganisms into the products.
Cause type: Sterility / contamination
A product that must be sterile could not be assured sterile, or was contaminated. A top reason for injectables, eye drops and IV products - loss of sterility assurance can lead to serious infections. All sterility / contamination recalls.

Check, then ask. Class II means harm is possible but usually temporary or reversible. Find the lot number on your package; if it matches, ask your pharmacist about a replacement. Do not simply stop a prescribed medication on your own - the gap can be riskier than the recall. This recall is now terminated, which means the firm has finished removing the affected product; anything on pharmacy shelves today should be unaffected.
