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: Scored 3 under the risk-of-harm criterion: medication backflow between IV containers can alter what a patient receives, and no injuries are reported.

The recall follows the potential for backflow of medication from secondary (piggyback) IV containers into primary IV containers, and the inability to prime the set due to occlusion.
