Abbott Diabetes Care has recalled FreeStyle Libre 3 sensors after finding they may provide incorrect high glucose readings.
The FDA classified the recall as its most serious type, and the agency advised users of the sensors to find out if theirs in the affected lot and to immediately stop use and throw any affected sensors away, according to a Sept. 5 news release from the FDA. Abbott Diabetes Care also sent an Urgent Medical Device Recall to affected customers recommending that users conduct a fingerstick test using any blood glucose meter if there are symptoms that do not match the sensor.
There have been two reported injuries, the release said.
