Nephron Sterile Compounding Center LLC is recalling 1,616,777 units of various sterile injectable medications due to a lack of assurance of sterility. The recalled products include critical medications such as Morphine Sulfate, Fentanyl Citrate, Epinephrine, and Ketamine HCl, which are used in hospitals and clinics. While no incidents or injuries have been reported to date, the lack of sterility assurance means the products may not be safe for injection. These products were distributed nationwide in pre-filled syringes and IV bags to healthcare facilities.
Injectable medications must be sterile to prevent serious health risks. If a non-sterile medication is injected into a patient, it can cause severe infections, systemic illness, or life-threatening sepsis. Because these drugs are administered directly into the bloodstream or tissue in clinical settings, any contamination poses a significant safety risk.
If you or a family member were harmed by this recalled product, you may have legal rights. Consider consulting a consumer protection attorney to understand your options for compensation.
