Subpotent drug
Medline is recalling 1-gallon Povidone-Iodine 10% solution because it may be subpotent (less effective than intended). This could lead to inadequate infection control in medical settings.
The solution may not contain enough active ingredient to effectively kill bacteria or viruses. This subpotent status could result in inadequate infection control during medical procedures.
Healthcare professionals and medical facilities using this antiseptic for wound care or infection prevention are most at risk. The product is not intended for home use.
Check for the product name 'READYPREP PVP, Povidone-Iodine 10% Solution, Topical Antiseptic, Not Sterile' on the label. The 1-gallon (3.78 L) bottle with NDC 53329-939-25 and lot # 24EJA180 (expires 06/01/2027) is affected.
Verify the product label matches the described items: 1-gallon bottle, NDC 53329-939-25, lot # 24EJA180.
