Based on FDA recall #Z-2400-2026 (https://api.fda.gov/device/enforcement.json?search=recall_number:%22Z-2400-2026%22&limit=1).

The FDA announced on May 27, 2026, that Inter-Med Llc is recalling the Advance Aluminum Chloride Gel Clear Hemostatic Gel Kit due to a labeling error. Some units contain an incorrect package insert for Ferric Sulfate Gel, which provides dangerous first aid instructions. Owners should stop using the product and contact the company for a replacement.

How to tell if you have it
