Why it was recalled

Due to a manufacturing issue, disinfecting cap for needle-free connectors may have an incomplete seal between the foil lid and plastic container, which may result in isopropyl alcohol evaporation from the sponge, which may result in inadequate disinfection.

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