Lack of Assurance of Sterility
Apollo Care is recalling Fentanyl 50 mcg/mL syringes (NDC 71170-910-25) because they may not be sterile. Using these syringes could cause infections, especially for patients receiving medical injections.
The syringes lack assurance of sterility, meaning they might be contaminated with bacteria. If used for injections, this could lead to infections or other health complications.
Patients prescribed Fentanyl injections by a doctor who own this specific syringe model are affected. Those with medical conditions requiring precise dosing are at higher risk.
Check for the NDC number 71170-910-25 and lot number AC-016624 on the syringe. These syringes were sold with an expiration date of June 10, 2023.
