There is a reasonable chance that using this product could cause serious health problems or death.

Victory Medical Center Pharmacy has recalled Glutathione (MDV), 200 mg/mL, 30 mL vial, according to data published by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The recall was reported on August 19, 2026 and was initiated on July 1, 2026. It is classified as a Class I recall, which means there is a reasonable chance that using this product could cause serious health problems or death.

Below is a plain-English summary of what was recalled, why it was recalled, how to tell whether you have the affected product, and what steps you can take. For the complete and most current details, you can view the FDA record linked further down this page.

What was recalled?

This recall covers Glutathione (MDV), 200 mg/mL, 30 mL vial, with approximately 91 affected. The company behind the recall is Victory Medical Center Pharmacy, based in Austin, TX. The FDA describes the product as: “Glutathione (MDV), 200 mg/mL, 30 mL vial, each mL contains Glutathione 200 mg, Ascorbic Acid 20 mg, Benzyl Alcohol 1.5%, Na Hydroxide (Ph Adjust) in sterile water for injection, VMC.”

Why was Glutathione (MDV), 200 mg/mL, 30 mL vial recalled?

According to the FDA, the stated reason for the recall is: “Microbial Contamination of Sterile Products - out of specifications results were obtained for bacterial endotoxin.” In plain terms, this recall relates to a sterility or contamination concern.

Sterile medicines, such as injectables and eye drops, must be completely free of microorganisms and stray particles. This recall means that sterility could not be assured or that contamination was found or suspected. Using a non-sterile product of this kind can cause infections, which is why these recalls are treated seriously.

What should you do?

If you think you may have bought Glutathione (MDV), 200 mg/mL, 30 mL vial, compare it against the product description and identifying codes (Lot # 1984345, 1980571, 1981940, Use Before Date: 08/27/2026.) before using it. This recall is currently listed as ongoing.

The general guidance for a matching product is to stop using it and follow the instructions in the official FDA recall notice, which may include a repair, replacement, refund, or safe disposal. When in doubt, contact Victory Medical Center Pharmacy or your local health authority.

Who this recall affects

This recall matters to anyone who bought Glutathione (MDV), 200 mg/mL, 30 mL vial. Even if you feel fine, it's worth checking what you have on hand rather than assuming you were missed.

Distribution listed in the notice: USA Nationwide.

What sterility or contamination concern actually means

Sterile medicines, such as injectables and eye drops, must be completely free of microorganisms and stray particles. This recall means that sterility could not be assured or that contamination was found or suspected. Using a non-sterile product of this kind can cause infections, which is why these recalls are treated seriously.

In this case, the concern applies specifically to Glutathione (MDV), 200 mg/mL, 30 mL vial from Victory Medical Center Pharmacy — not to the wider category of products. Similar items from other brands aren't part of this recall.

How to check whether you have it

On medicine bottles, the lot number and expiration date are printed on the pharmacy label or stamped directly on the manufacturer's bottle — often near the bottom edge or on the back. If a pharmacy label covers it, your pharmacist can look up the lot they dispensed.

Compare what you find against the identifying details in this recall: Lot # 1984345, 1980571, 1981940, Use Before Date: 08/27/2026.

What to do if you already bought it

Do not stop taking a prescribed medicine on your own because of a recall — for many conditions, an interrupted dose carries its own risk.

Instead, check the lot number against the details above and contact your pharmacist, who can confirm what they dispensed and arrange a replacement.

If you've had an unexpected reaction, contact your healthcare provider. Problems can also be reported to the FDA's MedWatch program.
