Class II · Moderate risk
Lipo MIC +B12 Methylcobalamin for Injection
Lack of Assurance of Sterility
Vitamin B12 Methylcobalamin with MIC Injection USP 1000 mcg/ml
Class II — Moderate risk. May cause temporary or reversible harm; serious harm unlikely.
Why it was recalled
Marketed without an Approved NDA/ANDA; IM and SQ injectable products are being recalled because the manufacturing firm is not registered with the FDA as a drug manufacturer
Cause type: Unapproved drug
The product was marketed without an approved NDA/ANDA, or does not meet the OTC monograph it claims to follow. Nothing about the product - dose, purity, safety - has been reviewed by FDA, so the claims on the box are unverified. All unapproved drug 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.
