Lack of sterility assurance
Sentara Home is recalling specific Daptomycin antibiotic infusions because they lack sterility assurance. This means the medication could be contaminated, posing a risk of infection during treatment. Patients using these infusions should stop using them and contact the pharmacy for instructions.
The medication lacks sterility assurance, meaning it could be contaminated with bacteria or other pathogens. This contamination could lead to infections during infusion, especially since the product is used directly in the body via a home pump.
