Why these products were recalled

Lack of Assurance of Sterility: The firm expanded the recall to other injectable products due to lack of assurance of sterility from poor aseptic practices observed at the firm.

Non-Sterility: RX Formulation initiated this recall due to a report of microbial contamination found in Calcium Gluconate saturated solution that was observed upon drawing the vial contents into a syringe.

The agency’s own wording, quoted from the enforcement report.

The unit total adds up the quantities the agency stated for each product. Where a product record gave no figure, or gave a weight rather than a count, it contributes nothing — so the real total is at least this, never less.
