Injectable drug recalled due to lack of sterility assurance

Carolina Infusion is recalling TRI-MIX 30/2/40 Injectable because the manufacturer cannot assure the product's sterility. Non-sterile injectable drugs pose serious infection risks.

What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: This is an FDA Class II recall of an injectable drug with lack of assurance of sterility. No illnesses or injuries are reported in the source. The hazard is theoretical but serious, as non-sterile injectables pose direct risk to patients. This meets the criteria for High (Score 3): a risk-of-harm product where injury has not yet been reported.
