According to an online news report posted on islandpacket.com, Mylan Pharmaceuticals has recalled its Semglee Prefilled Insulin Injection Pens due to missing labels. The recalled states that the recalled insulin pens lack labels, resulting in the wrong amount of insulin being injected. One batch of Semglee prefilled insulin injection pens has been recalled by Mylan Pharmaceuticals for missing labels. Moreover, if a patient receives the wrong amount of insulin, they could suffer “serious complications.”
The recalled batch is described as having batch No. BF20003118, an expiration date of August 2022. The recalled Semglee 100 units/ml (U-100) 3mL prefilled insulin injection pens come in a package of five units. The carton’s packaging is labeled correctly. However, the insulin pens inside the carton may be incorrect.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s recall announcement includes a statement released by the product’s parent company, Viatris. The statement warns that some diabetes patients take more than one kind of insulin, and this labeling error might cause “a mix-up of products and/or strengths.”
If you or a loved one have the affected insulin pens, you should contact your doctor and Stericycle to return the pens. Wholesalers are asked to quarantine their supply and stop selling the product.
