Is there a recall on alere san diego, inc. right now?

This archive contains 2 records, including 2 with agency-reported ongoing status. The status field can be incomplete or stale. Open the current official notice and match your exact product.

How do I check my package or product?

Compare the product, firm and lot, date, model or serial identifiers with the notice. Use the label-check guide if you need help locating an identifier.

A name is a search match. The agency notice sets the affected products and identifiers. Do not assume that every item with the same name or brand belongs to the recall.

What if the search finds no matching record?

This search has source and keyword limits. Missing records or a missing lot code do not establish that a product is unaffected. Check source coverage and the agency's current notices.

Where can I find older records?
