Human Chorionic Gonadotropin 6000 IU Vial Lyophilized 1109 East…

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

Why it was recalled

Lack of assurance of sterility.

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.

What was recalled

Human Chorionic Gonadotropin 6000 IU Vial Lyophilized 1109 East Hallandale Beach Blvd. Hallandale Beach, FL 33009

FDA recall number
D-1152-2018 · 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.
