Description

Ambitex NMD400 Nitrile Exam Gloves size medium. General Hospital and Personal use. Intended to be worn on the hand for medical purposes to provide a barrier against potentially infectious materials and other contaminants.

Reason

Ambitex Nitrile NMD400 Exam Gloves size medium on exam hold were inadvertently placed into commerce. The product was under Exam Hold because samples pulled from a shipment manufactured by the firm failed the water leak test performed by FDA as described at 21 CFR 800.20.

Action

The firm sent an Urgent: Product Recall letter dated 8/25/2015. The firm is requesting the user discontinue using and return any remaining stock of the AMBITEX Nitrile Exam Gloves because the gloves were inadvertently shipped prior to U.S. FDA releasing them for sale. Additionally, the firm requests that the customer quarantine the affected examination gloves; and return a copy of the enclosed Acknowledgment Form confirming their receipt of the Urgent recall via fax to 216-651-9760.
