Class II · Moderate risk
Testosterone 100mg Anastrozole 4mg
Presence of Foreign substance - potential presence of metal particulate matter
Testosterone Cypionate 200 mcg/mL in Sesame Oil Injection
Class II — Moderate risk. May cause temporary or reversible harm; serious harm unlikely.
Why it was recalled
Lack of Assurance of Sterility: A recall of all compounded sterile preparations within expiry is being initiated due to observations associated with poor sterile production practices resulting in a lack of sterility assurance for their finished drugs.
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.
