Doxycycline/0.9 % NaCl 100 mg/100 mL IV
Class II — Moderate risk. May cause temporary or reversible harm; serious harm unlikely.
Why it was recalled
Lack of Assurance of Sterility: Process deficiencies were observed in the sterile ophthalmic and injectable products that could have compromised the sterility of the product.
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.
