Affected Products

Reason

Cardinal Health is voluntarily recalling specific production lots of Monoject Standard Hypodermic Needles, Vet Pak Hypodermic Needles and blunt cannulas. The products were distributed between January 28, 2019 and April 23, 2019. This recall is being conducted due to a manufacturing defect that was found for the cartridge component, which could compromise the sterility barrier of the product. The usage of a needle with compromised sterility could result in infection. Cardinal Health is not aware of any reports of patient harm.
