The injections—USP 500mg /100mL—which were manufactured by Claris Lifesciences and distributed by Sagent.

The metronidazole injections are being recalled due to the discovery of non-sterility in two lots of the injection.

These infections could be fatal, especially in patients who are immunocompromised. Sagent is not aware of any adverse patient events resulting from this product and is continuing its diligent investigation of the situation.
