Central Admixture Pharmacy Services recalls phenylephrine 50mg in 0.9% sodium chloride IV bags due to lack of sterility assurance. This affects specific lots from 2023 with expiration dates up to August 2023.
Lack of assurance of sterility. Validation data for decontamination cycles is lacking.
Central Admixture Pharmacy Services has recalled phenylephrine 50mg added to 0.9% sodium chloride IV bags (250mL) because they lack proper sterility assurance. This could lead to infections if used in medical settings.
The IV bags were manufactured without sufficient validation data to ensure sterility during decontamination cycles. This means the bags could contain harmful bacteria that cause infections when used in medical procedures.
Healthcare professionals using these IV bags in medical facilities are most at risk. Patients receiving this medication through IV administration may be affected.
Check for the NDC code 72196-7039-1 or 72196-7039-2 with lot numbers 36-251703 or 36-251704. These bags were sold in the U.S. with expiration dates up to August 2023.
Look for NDC code 72196-7039-1 or 72196-7039-2 with lot numbers 36-251703 or 36-251704 on the bag.
The recall indicates a lack of sterility assurance, so these IV bags should not be used until the remedy is applied. The official notice does not specify a remedy.
The expiration dates are August 28, 2023, and August 29, 2023 for the specific lots mentioned.
The official notice does not provide a reporting mechanism.
