IVX Animal Health Inc is recalling approximately 19,512 bottles of VetTek Hypertonic Saline Solution and VetTek C-M-P-K (Calcium-Magnesium-Phosphorus-Potassium-Dextrose) Injection used for animal treatment. These veterinary medications were found to have a lack of sterility assurance, meaning they may be contaminated with bacteria or other pathogens. These products were distributed to a distributor in Missouri and used for intravenous or injectable animal care. Consumers should check their supplies for these specific VetTek products and contact their veterinarian or the manufacturer for guidance and a refund.
A lack of sterility assurance means the injectable solution may contain bacteria or other harmful microbes. Because these medications are injected directly into an animal's body, non-sterile products can cause serious infections, abscesses, or systemic illness.
