Hollister-Stier Laboratories LLC is voluntarily
                    recalling some of their

were voluntarily recalling several lots of their
                    Epinephrine Injection product
that is used in the Ana-Kit were found to be
subpotent.

available to
                    consumers nationwide for
treating severe allergic reactions due to stinging
