Intervet, Inc. (Merck Animal Health) is voluntarily recalling Banamine (flunixin meglumine injection) in 100 mL and 250 mL vials. The recall was initiated because particulate matter was found in the solution. This medication is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) used in horses and cattle to reduce inflammation and fever.
Injecting a product containing particulate matter can cause local irritation, inflammation, or more serious blood vessel blockages (embolisms) in the animal. These particulates can lead to life-threatening complications depending on where they travel in the animal's body.
