Azithromycin for Injection USP Vial

Class II — Moderate risk. May cause temporary or reversible harm; serious harm unlikely.

Why it was recalled

cGMP deviations: Temperature abuse

Cause type: Temperature excursion

The product was stored or shipped outside its labeled temperature range. Heat or freezing can degrade a drug without any visible change, so it may be weaker than labeled. All temperature excursion recalls.

D-0997-2022 · FDA notice

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.
