Reason for recall
Reports of tubing detaching from oxygen masks either prior to use (in packaging) or during use were made by different end users and for different batches. The failures were caused by an improper solvent bond between the oxygen tubing and the oxygen mask connector. While the defect affects less than 2% of recalled product, there is a potential for harm when oxygen supply to the user is disrupted.
Packaging recalls include wrong labels, wrong products in the wrong bottle, missing leaflets, short-filled or empty capsules and seals that fail.
