  • Causa
    Taechang industrial is initiating a recall of all lot numbers of terumo branded u-100 insulin syringe with a capacity of 0.5ml x 27g and 29g due to incorrect information contained on the device peel pack.The statement:"0.5ml single use syringe for 100 units or less in two unit increments"is incorrect and should state:"0.5ml single use syringe for 50 units or less in one unit increments"in essence, the 0.5ml peel packs have been inadvertently printed with information intended for the 1.0ml peel pack. the printing on the syringes themselves is correct.
