RXQ Compounding LLC: Lidocaine and Epinephrine Injection Recalled for Subpotency

Agency Publication Date: October 25, 2018

Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

RXQ Compounding LLC is recalling 395 vials of Lidocaine 1% + Epinephrine 1:100,000 Injection Solution because testing revealed the product is sub-potent, meaning it is weaker than labeled. The recall affects 50 mL glass vials of this prescription medication, which is used for local anesthesia during medical procedures. If the medication is sub-potent, it may not provide the necessary level of numbing, potentially leading to pain during a procedure or requiring additional doses. Consumers who may have received this medication should contact their healthcare provider or pharmacist for guidance.

Risk

A sub-potent local anesthetic may fail to effectively numb the treatment area during a medical procedure, causing the patient to experience unexpected pain or discomfort. Additionally, a lower-than-intended dose of epinephrine could affect the medication's ability to control bleeding or prolong the anesthetic effect.

What You Should Do

  1. Identify if you have the affected product by checking the label for Lidocaine 1% + Epinephrine 1:100,000 (MDV) INJ SOL in 50 mL glass vials.
  2. Check for Lot Number 04042018:58 with an expiration date of 10/17/18 and NDC 7073197450 on the vial or packaging.

  4. Return any unused product to the pharmacy or place of purchase for a refund.
