Class of Recall Class 1 recall is initiated when the product defect poses a life-threatening situation to users. Some examples of defects that will result in a Class 1 recall are non-sterile injections, contamination with toxic substances and products with major labelling errors. Class 2 recall is initiated when the problem or defect is unlikely to cause serious harm to users. Some examples of defects that will result in a Class 2 recall include products with minor labelling errors or products which fail to meet product specification or pharmacopoeia standards but are likely to cause minimal hazard to users. |
