Oregon Compounding Centers is voluntarily recalling certain unexpired human and veterinary sterile products to the consumer level due to lack of sterility assurance.
The company has not received any reports of product contamination or adverse events to date, but is issuing this voluntary recall out of an abundance of caution following a recent inspection which identified an issue with sterility assurance. If there is microbial contamination in products intended to be sterile, patients are at risk of serious infections which may be life threatening.
“We are fully cooperating with health officials,” said Denise Burnham, R.Ph., owner and pharmacist. “We deeply regret the impact this voluntary recall has on our customers, but patient safety is our highest priority.”
All recalled products have a label that includes the Creative Compounds name as well as a lot number. The recalled products were made from July 1, 2014 through September 22, 2014, and distributed to health care facilities, physicians, and patients in two states, Oregon and Washington.
The recall does not pertain to any non-sterile compounded medications prepared by the pharmacy.
All unexpired lots of the following sterile compounded products are subject to the recall:
