Latex Hazard Leads to Recall of Certain Dyural-40 and Dyural-80 Convenience Kits

By U.S Food and Drug Administration | December 20, 2018

Asclemed USA Inc., a unit of Enovachem Pharmaceuticals, is voluntarily recalling 20 lots of Dyural-40 and 61 lots of Dyural-80, to the user level. The products include recalled Sodium Chloride, USP, 0.9% manufactured by Fresenius Kabi, which has been recalled due to product labeling incorrectly stating stoppers do not contain latex.

For the population most at risk, those with a severe allergic reaction to latex, there is probability of an anaphylactic reaction, and this could result in hospitalization or death. To date, Asclemed USA Inc. has not received any reports of adverse events related to this recall.

The products are Dyural-40 convenience kits packaged in plastic trays and Dyural-80 convenience kits packaged in plastic trays, containing Sodium Chloride, USP, 0.9% by Fresenius Kabi.

The affected Dyural-40 lots include the following:
