Cardinal Health is recalling 371,326 units of the Monoject U-100 1 mL Insulin Syringe Luer-Lock with Tip Cap Soft Pack due to incompatibility with needleless Intravenous (IV) connectors. These specific syringes, which are identified by REF number 1188100777, may not connect properly to IV lines, potentially leading to delays in medication delivery or leakage. Consumers should contact their healthcare provider or Cardinal Health to determine if their stock is affected and for further instructions regarding a remedy.
The syringes have demonstrated an inability to properly interface with needleless IV connectors, which can prevent the successful administration of IV push insulin. This failure could result in the patient receiving an incorrect dose of insulin or experiencing a significant delay in treatment.
Discontinue use for IV push insulin via needleless connectors.
