Abbott Laboratories is recalling 179 cases (1,432 bottles) of Jevity Complete, Balanced Nutrition with Fiber 1.5 Cal enteral feeding containers (1000 mL). The recall was initiated because the plastic bottles may have leaks or pinholes, which could allow the liquid nutrition to spoil or become contaminated before use. These products were distributed to consignees in Alabama, Florida, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, New Jersey, and New York. No injuries have been reported, and consumers should return the product to the place of purchase for a refund or throw it away.
Leaks or tiny holes in the feeding container can break the sterile seal of the liquid nutrition, allowing harmful bacteria to grow. This poses a risk of foodborne illness or infection to patients who are receiving this nutrition through a feeding tube.
