Retractable Technologies, Inc. Not Impacted by FDA Safety Communication

Retractable Technologies, Inc. (NYSE American: RVP) reports that the FDA Safety Communication “Evaluating Plastic Syringes Made in China for Potential Device Failures” on November 30, 2023 does not refer to syringes from Retractable Technologies Inc. The FDA identified quality issues related to “leaks, breakage, and other problems after manufacturers made changes to the syringe dimensions.” Retractable Technologies has not incorporated any recent changes to the dimensions of the syringe barrel on its gold-standard VanishPoint Safety Syringe. VanishPoint users can continue to be confident not only in VanishPoint’s ability to deliver the correct dose of medication, but also in its ability to protect users from needlesticks better than any other safety syringe.

If you have any question or concerns about the FDA Safety Communication, please do not hesitate to contact us.
