ICU Medical Inc. is recalling 2,112 flexible containers of Aminosyn II 15% (An Amino Acid Injection, Sulfite-Free) because visible foreign particles were discovered in sample units. The particles were identified as hair, fibers, and proteinaceous material, which should not be present in an injectable medication. This prescription drug was distributed nationwide across the United States. Consumers should check their supply immediately for the affected lot and contact their healthcare provider or pharmacist regarding any unused product.
Injecting a medication containing particulate matter like hair or fibers can cause serious health issues, including inflammation, allergic reactions, or the blockage of blood vessels, which could lead to life-threatening complications like a stroke or heart attack.
