By Kelly Young
Beacon Hill Medical Pharmacy in Michigan has issued a nationwide recall of all lots of 135 different IV solutions and hormone replacement therapies because it cannot guarantee their sterility, according to a company announcement distributed by the FDA.
The company is unaware of any adverse events associated with the products, and there is no evidence of contamination.
The clear or amber vials are filled with 1 mL to 100 mL of liquid solution, suspension, or lyophilized powder. Physicians, hospitals, and patients are instructed to check their inventories and return the affected lots to the manufacturer.
The manufacturer's recall notice provides a list of the products.
