AuroMedics Pharma LLC is recalling 54,720 vials of Ampicillin and Sulbactam for Injection, USP (3 grams/vial), a sterile antibiotic used for intramuscular or intravenous injection. The recall was initiated after a customer reported finding visible red rubber particles inside a vial, which are believed to have originated from the manufacturing process of the active ingredients. Consumers should immediately stop using these vials and contact their healthcare provider or pharmacist, as the presence of foreign particulate matter in an injectable drug can lead to serious health complications.
Injecting a product containing particulate matter can cause local inflammation, phlebitis, or the blockage of blood vessels, which may lead to serious events like pulmonary embolism or stroke. One customer has already confirmed the presence of visible red rubber particles in the medication.
