Dr. Reddy’s Recalls Levetiracetam Injection in the U.S.

Recently, Dr. Reddy’s Laboratories Ltd announced a recall of one batch (Lot No: A1540076) of Levetiracetam in 0.75% Sodium Chloride Injection (1,000 mg/100 mL) in the U.S. 

The recall is due to a labelling error, where the infusion bag is mislabeled as Levetiracetam in 0.82% Sodium Chloride Injection (500 mg/100 mL), while the outer aluminium overwrap correctly identifies the product. 

This recall is being conducted at the consumer level to ensure patient safety. Healthcare providers and consumers are advised to check packaging carefully and discontinue use of the affected lot if found.
