Succinylcholine Chloride Injection recall

FDA recall D-0008-2026 · initiated Sep 26, 2025

By the pharmaranks editorial teamReviewed against the FDA (openFDA) sourcesUpdated Oct 15, 2025How we research

Dr. Reddy's Laboratories, Inc. recalled Succinylcholine Chloride Injection in Sep 2025 — an FDA Class II recall (D-0008-2026) because Out-of-Specification (OOS) result during the 6-month stability testing; decreased preservative concentration.

May cause temporary or medically reversible harm; low probability of serious harm.

Why it was recalled

Out-of-Specification (OOS) result during the 6-month stability testing; decreased preservative concentration.

Wrong strength, or it did not keep

The product did not contain what the label promised, or stopped meeting specification before its expiry date. Under-strength medicine can mean an untreated condition.

This is a manufacturing or quality failure, not a finding that the medicine is unsafe to take — across every recall we hold, none was issued for that reason. It does not mean the batch was harmless.
