Sandoz is voluntarily recalling one lot of Cefazolin for incorrectly including a different antibiotic in its packaging, according to a June 27 Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announcement.

The lot is being recalled following a customer complaint indicating that four Penicillin G Potassium were incorrectly included in a carton of Cefazolin.
