Reason for Recall

It has been determined that the Onset Mixing Pen has an optimal use period of 18 months from start of use. However, the current labeling and IFU does not stipulate this time period.

Firm Action

Valeant sent a letter entitled "Field Correction to Orapharma Onset Mixing Pen," dated 1/29/2016, to customers via UPS. The letter identified the affected device and the issue involved. The firm recommends that users stop using the device if it had been in use for more than 18 months. Customers were to refer to the list of the affected lots to determine if their device needed to be replaced. If the device was one of the ones identified, users were to contact Valeant Pharmaceuticals to arrange for a replacement at no charge. Questions should be directed to customer service 800-321-4576.
