Accord Healthcare, Inc. is recalling one lot of daptomycin (Daptomycin for Injection), a medication used to treat serious bacterial infections. The recall was issued because cartons labeled as containing 350 mg/vial actually contained vials with a 500 mg dose, leading to a risk that patients receive more medication than intended. The product was distributed nationwide to pharmacies and hospitals. No injuries or illnesses have been reported to date.
Patients who receive 500 mg of daptomycin instead of the intended 350 mg dose are at risk for drug toxicity and severe side effects. This potency error could lead to significant health complications depending on the patient's condition.
You have 2 options:
Cartons labeled as 350 mg/vial contain vials of 500 mg per vial.
