On April 12, 2022, Mylan Pharmaceuticals Inc. recalled one batch of insulin.
Labels were missing on one batch of Insulin Glargine Injection.
This package is an unbranded Insulin Glargine- yfgn vial and product information, batch number and expiry date information are present on the carton.
Insulin Glargine was distributed in the United States between December 9, 2021 and March 4, 2022. Patients who received this treatment with more than one type of insulin, could have been administered the wrong strength of treatment/ mix-up of products. This could have led the patient to have a high or low blood sugar control—which could result in serious complications.

The company initiated this recall and have notified distributors.
