SCA Pharmaceuticals recalls fentanyl injections due to lack of sterility assurance. This could lead to infections if used improperly. Contact the manufacturer for details.
Lack of Assurance of Sterility
SCA Pharmaceuticals is recalling fentanyl injections that may not be sterile, which could cause infections if used. This is a serious safety issue for patients receiving these medications.
The injections lack assurance of sterility, meaning they could be contaminated with bacteria or other pathogens. If injected, this could lead to serious infections, including sepsis, which is life-threatening.
Patients prescribed fentanyl injections by a healthcare provider. Those using the recalled product are at risk of infection due to potential contamination.
Check for the product name: fentanyl 2,500 mcg/250 mL in 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection. Look for lot numbers 1223045757 (expires 12/27/23) or 1223049716 (expires 5/25/24).
Immediately stop using the recalled fentanyl injection product if you have it.
