The Multiple Dose Vials were manufactured by Luitpold Pharmaceuticals, Inc., and distributed by American Regent, Inc.

The Convenience Kit recall was implemented in response to American Regent’s recall of three lots of vials because some may contain visible particulates. We have previously reported on the American Regent recall.

Centurion has ceased including the defective American Regent products in its kits. The other components included in the kits are not affected by the recalled American Regent product. The kits are customized for specific health care facilities and Centurion notified these customers and distributors by certified letter on March 31, 2011.

Customers with any of the affected products should not use them. Continued use of the affected lots of Bacteriostatic Sodium Chloride Injection products from American Regent, Inc. may result in potential adverse events such as disruption of blood flow within small blood vessels in the lung, localized inflammation (swelling and redness due to accumulation of inflammatory cells), and granuloma formation.
