Mckesson recalls glutaraldehyde disinfectants produced between June 1, 2021 and September 30, 2021 due to potential temperature excursions affecting product effectiveness. Consumers should check product labels for model numbers and dates.
Facility Temperature excursions (from June 2021-August 2021) prior to delivery; exposure to higher temperatures may have impacted product effectiveness. All lots received between 06/01/21-9/30/21.
Mckesson is recalling several glutaraldehyde disinfectant products made between June 1 and September 30, 2021. These products may have been exposed to higher temperatures during shipping, which could reduce their effectiveness. This means the disinfectants might not work as intended in healthcare settings.
The disinfectants were shipped during a period when facility temperatures may have been too high (June 2021-August 2021). This could have reduced the product's effectiveness by causing chemical degradation. The risk is that the disinfectant might not kill germs properly when used.
Healthcare facilities that received these products between June 1, 2021 and September 30, 2021 are most at risk. The products are used in medical settings for disinfection.
Check product labels for model numbers: 68-102800 (28-day), 68-101400 (14-day), or catalog numbers like 341, 10-1400, 10-2800. Products were sold between June 1, 2021 and September 30, 2021.
Look for model numbers 68-102800, 68-101400, or catalog numbers 341, 10-1400, 10-2800 on the product label.
The disinfectants may have been exposed to higher temperatures during shipping from June 2021 to August 2021, which could reduce their effectiveness.
Check the product label for model numbers or catalog numbers. If it matches the recalled items, contact Mckesson for guidance.
The recall is due to potential reduced effectiveness, not immediate safety risks. The disinfectant may not kill germs as intended if it was exposed to high temperatures.
