Medline Industries, LP is recalling 222,800 units of Medline Alcohol Prep Pads (70% Isopropyl Alcohol) because the product is subpotent, meaning it may not contain the required amount of active ingredient to effectively sanitize. The recall affects 2-ply single-use pads sold in boxes of 100 or cases of 1,000. Consumers should stop using these pads immediately as they may not provide the expected level of antiseptic protection.
Subpotent alcohol pads may fail to sufficiently reduce bacteria on the skin, which can increase the risk of infection when used for skin preparation prior to an injection or minor surgical procedure.
