These products look similar due to similar packaging and containers/.  These nasal solutions are not sterile, and injections of non-sterile solutions can trigger serious and life-threatening infections.Due to FDA warnings, Endo USA recalled its unapproved nasal product in December 2024.  To date and  despite repeated notifications, BPI Labs has not complied with the FDA’s ordered recall.Healthcare professionals and you, the consumer, should be aware of the potential dangers of these products.https://www.fda.gov/drugs/drug-safety-and-availability/fda-warns-health-care-professionals-not-use-epinephrine-nasal-solutions-bpi-labs-and-endo-usa#epinephrine #nasal #injectable #endousa #bpilabs
