Cardinal Health recalls 16G 1-1/2" Monoject needles due to potential sterility barrier compromise from manufacturing defects. Affected lot numbers: 904212, 905612, 907002.
Manufacturing defect was found for the cartridge component, which could compromise the sterility barrier of the product
Cardinal Health is recalling 16-gauge 1-1/2-inch Monoject needles because a manufacturing defect might compromise the sterility barrier. This could lead to infections if the needles are used without proper sterility.
The needles have a manufacturing defect in the cartridge component that could weaken the sterility barrier. This might allow contamination during use, potentially causing infections if the needles are not sterile.
People who own or use the recalled needles, especially those with medical procedures requiring injections. Those with compromised immune systems may be at higher risk.
Check for the item code 8881200037 on the needle packaging. Affected lot numbers are 904212, 905612, and 907002.
Look for lot numbers 904212, 905612, or 907002 on the needle packaging.
The recall states a potential sterility barrier compromise, but the needles may still be safe if used properly. Consult the manufacturer for specific guidance.
Check the item code 8881200037 and lot numbers 904212, 905612, or 907002 on the packaging.
