Do not stop taking this without speaking to your pharmacist or doctor.
LABELING: LABEL MIX-UP: The infusion bag is incorrectly labeled as Levetiracetam in 0.82% Sodium Chloride Injection 500 mg/100 mL, while the aluminum overwrap packaging correctly identifies the product as Levetiracetam in 0.75% Sodium Chloride Injection 1,000 mg/100 mL.
The Recall Registry rates this highest risk — FDA Class I: reasonable probability of serious harm or death.
Check the lot numbers below against what you have. Do not stop taking a prescription medicine because of a recall without speaking to your pharmacist or doctor first — for many medicines stopping is more harmful than continuing, and they can tell you whether yours is affected and what to do about it.
