Why it was recalled

Labeling: Label Error on Declared Strength; the pre-printed text on the primary infusion bag and the NDC incorrectly identifies the product as Levetiracetam in 0.75% Sodium Chloride (1000 mg/100 mL) however, the external foil pouch correctly identifies the product as Levetiracetam in 0.54% Sodium Chloride Injection (1,500/100 mL).

Class I is the FDA’s most serious recall level: there is a reasonable probability that using this product will cause serious harm or death.
