The Pearland recall attorneys at Denena Points, PC report that on Friday, Nova Diabetes Care announced the recall of around 62 million glucose test strips sold under the names Nova Max Blood Glucose Test Strips and Nova Max Plus Glucose Meter Kits. The recall is due to contamination by a chemical used in the manufacturing process that could cause the diabetes test strips to indicate abnormally high, incorrect blood sugar levels.
The U.S. FDA is warning diabetes patients not to use the recalled glucose test strips because the incorrect readings could lead to resulting medication errors and delays in critical medical care. Concerned patients and caregivers can call 800-681-7390 or go to www.novacares.com/news/nova-max-recall.php to see if their test strips are affected by the recall. If your test strips are subject to the recall, you can return them and receive free replacements. Our Pearland recall attorneys note that some symptoms of abnormal blood sugar levels could include: nausea, excessive thirst, headaches, weakness, and trembling.
