Timeline

10 Apr 2013	Recall initiated by company

Reason for recall

Lack of Assurance of Sterility: all sterile products compounded, repackaged, and distributed by this compounding pharmacy due to lack of sterility assurance and concerns associated with the quality control processes.

A sterility recall means a product that must be sterile, such as an injection or eye drop, may be contaminated. Using a non-sterile product can cause serious infection.
