Market Withdrawal

A firm's removal or correction of a distributed device for no violation, or for a minor violation the FDA would not take legal action on. Normal stock rotation is an example. A market withdrawal is not a recall.

Where it is written
21 CFR 806.2(i); 21 CFR 7.3(j)

Avoid This Mistake

A market withdrawal is exempt from the Part 806 reporting requirement, but Part 806 still requires records of all corrections and removals.
