Class II — Moderate risk. May cause temporary or reversible harm; serious harm unlikely.
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.
Pentosan Polysulfate Sodium 250mg/mL, 5mL-vial, Room Temperature, Tailor Made Compounding
Drug: Pentosan
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.
