What the authority reported
The urinalysis strips products have shown reduced sensitivity, or potential false negative results for the detection of urinary protein by way of uneven color fading on the total protein test pad. This could lead to a delay in the identification of potential kidney diseases, their evaluation, and/or other conditions associated with elevated protein levels in urine and subsequently a delay in patient treatment. Recall start date: October 10, 2024
What to do
Follow the instructions in the official notice — recall remedies (refund, repair, replacement, or disposal) are defined by the issuing authority and the responsible business, and they differ per recall. Do not rely on summaries, including this one.
