Arkray Factory is recalling 4,780 boxes of Spotchem II Glucose and Spotchem II EZ Health Check Vet Multistrips used for veterinary diagnostic testing. These test strips are incorrectly reporting low blood glucose levels even when actual levels are above 265/dL. This defect can lead to incorrect treatment decisions for animals, as veterinary professionals may act on false low readings. Owners and veterinary clinics should contact the manufacturer immediately for further instructions and a potential refund or replacement.
The test strips provide inaccurate readings, specifically reporting dangerously low blood sugar levels when the actual level is high (above 265/dL). This could cause veterinary professionals to mismanage a pet's health, potentially administering glucose or adjusting insulin incorrectly based on false data.
