Why it was recalled

Incorrect labeling was used on each pouch of the affected lots of APTIMA Urine Specimen Collection Kits. The outer box of the kits are identified correctly as "APTIMA Urine Collection Kits"; however, the inner pouches are incorrectly labeled as "APTIMA Unisex Swab Collection Kit for Endocervical and Male Urethral Swab Specimens."

This product is unlikely to cause harm, but it breaks a safety or labelling rule.
