Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Atlas Pharmaceuticals, LLC is recalling 10,582 vials of injectable veterinary drugs, including Buprenorphine (a pain reliever) and Glycopyrrolate (used during anesthesia), due to a lack of assurance of sterility. Using a non-sterile injectable medication in animals can lead to serious infections at the injection site or systemic illness. This voluntary recall affects three distinct product strengths and sizes distributed nationwide. No incidents or injuries have been reported to date.

Risk

The lack of sterility assurance means these injectable medications may contain bacteria or other contaminants. This poses a risk of infection or other serious health complications for animals receiving the injections.

  2. Check the lot numbers and expiration dates on your vials. See the Affected Products section below for the full list of affected codes.
  3. If you have animal health concerns, contact your veterinarian. Return any unused product to the place of purchase for a refund, throw it away, or contact the manufacturer at 844-661-1829 or via www.atlasdrugs.com for further instructions.
