Ameditech recalls Fastect II drug screen dipsticks that may not consistently detect all drugs due to enzyme failures. Users should stop using affected models to avoid inaccurate results.
Various immunoassay enzymes failed product performance, thereby the products do not consistently detect all calibrator and secondary compounds at the levels stated in the labeling.
Ameditech is recalling certain Fastect II drug screen dipsticks because they may not consistently detect all drugs due to enzyme failures. This could lead to inaccurate test results, which is important for users relying on these tests for drug screening.
The dipsticks contain immunoassay enzymes that can fail to perform correctly, meaning they might not detect all drugs at the levels specified on the label. This could result in false negative results, where drugs are present but not detected.
People who own or use the recalled Fastect II drug screen dipsticks for drug testing. Those most at risk are individuals using these tests for medical or legal purposes where accurate results are critical.
Check for the model numbers MF25, MF23, MF20, MF21, MF18, QF09, QF12, MF10, MF16, MF14, MF11, or MF12 on the dipstick packaging. All lots within the expiry date are affected.
