Clonidine Transdermal System
CGMP Deviations: use of an unapproved raw material
Clonidine HCL Injection
Class III — Low risk. Unlikely to cause harm, but violates FDA regulations.
Why it was recalled
Labeling: Label Error on Declared Strength: Side carton panel incorrectly lists the concentration as "500 mcg Clonidine Hydrochloride" rather than the correct concentration of "100 mcg Clonidine Hydrochloride" per mL.
Cause type: Labeling / mix-up
Wrong label, wrong strength, mixed-up products, or packaging errors. One of the most dangerous causes - you can end up taking the wrong drug or the wrong dose. All labeling / mix-up recalls.

Low risk, still worth a check. Class III means the product is unlikely to cause harm but breaks an FDA rule (often labeling). If your lot matches, your pharmacy will normally swap it; there is no need for alarm. This recall is now terminated, which means the firm has finished removing the affected product; anything on pharmacy shelves today should be unaffected.
