Why it was recalled

Labeling issue in that the breakthrough (i.e., permeation) times for two chemotherapy drugs (Carmustine and Thiotepa) stated on the wallet (primary packaging) of the Protexis Neoprene surgical gloves are incorrect. Additionally, breakthrough times for Mitomycin were added to the same label in error.

Class II means using this product may cause temporary or medically reversible health problems; the chance of serious harm is remote.
