Plunger component has been manufactured with an unapproved material (Polyethylene not Polypropylene) and does not meet raw material specification
Medicina is recalling reusable 5ml oral syringes that use an unapproved material in the plunger. This could mean the syringe doesn't meet safety standards, potentially causing injury if used improperly.
The plunger is made from polyethylene instead of the required polypropylene. This unapproved material may not meet safety standards, potentially causing injury if the syringe is used incorrectly.
People who own or use Medicina's reusable 5ml oral syringes with the specified batch numbers are affected. Those using the syringes for medical purposes are at higher risk.
Check for the model code OTH05 on the syringe. Look for batch numbers HM18043, HM20020, or HM21055. The UDI-DI code (01)05056115403491 is also present.
Identify the batch number and model code on the syringe to confirm if it's affected.
