Professional Disposables International, Inc. has recalled approximately 198,250 cases of Prevantics antiseptic swabs and swabsticks, which contain chlorhexidine gluconate (3.15% w/v) and isopropyl alcohol (70% v/v). The recall was initiated due to manufacturing quality issues and concerns regarding the testing methods used during production. These products are commonly used for skin preparation before medical procedures. No injuries or adverse events have been reported to date.
Manufacturing quality deviations can lead to products that do not meet safety or effectiveness standards.
