About 20 minutes ago I found out about this while at my bank. I happened to catch 2 tellers discussing a recall and how concerned they are for people they know who are on GLP1s.

22 vials in total? Lol. If you only skim the headline, it sounds like a huge recall. In reality it's 22 vials from Apothecary. Lily is squeezing every opportunity to sow doubt about anything that isn't name brand. Again.

The figure is 22 lots rather than 22 vials, which is where the confusion comes from.
On top of that, this is a Class II recall (retail only). That means the FDA does not even advise patients to stop using it, and the risk level is minimal.
The issue flagged was a lack of assurance of sterility — not proof that the product was non-sterile, only that sterility could not be guaranteed.

"According to the FDA, 22 vials of *** were recalled across the country. Still, the lot codes that came with the notice suggested the true figure might be 22 lots rather than 22 vials. USA TODAY has asked the FDA to clarify."
Getting a recall right matters just as much as getting a medication right.
The FDA shows real nerve issuing a recall notice for a drug that was "not made correct" while failing to ensure the recall's own wording was "not made correct."
That is a glaring double standard when it comes to accountability.

As was pointed out, no one is being told to quit using it either, and they describe the chance of any harm as extremely low. That still didn't prevent the over-the-top headline from drawing attention.
