GlucaGen Hypokit recalled

Novo Nordisk Canada Inc. is recalling two lots, YW60335 and YW60351, of its GlucaGen Hypokit.

A manufacturing defect in the hypokit has prompted the voluntary recall.

The hypokit is used to treat severe hypoglycemic reactions in people with diabetes, when the reaction has caused unconsciousness.

There have been no negative reactions from the use of these lots to date.

People concerned or with questions about the GlucaGen hypokit recall can contact their health care practitioners or Novo Nordisk Canada by phone at 1-800-465-4334.
