Class II · Moderate risk Ongoing Initiated Nov 17, 2016 (10 years ago)

TriMix

Class II — Moderate risk. May cause temporary or reversible harm; serious harm unlikely.

Why it was recalled

Lack of Assurance of Sterility

Cause type: Sterility / contamination

A product that must be sterile could not be assured sterile, or was contaminated. A top reason for injectables, eye drops and IV products - loss of sterility assurance can lead to serious infections. All sterility / contamination recalls.

What was recalled

TriMix, Alprostadil/Phentolamine/Papaverine 20mcg/0.5mg/30mg/mL, (1 ML). Compounded by Tri-Coast Pharmacy

FDA recall number
D-0314-2017 · FDA notice

Check, then ask. Class II means harm is possible but usually temporary or reversible. Find the lot number on your package; if it matches, ask your pharmacist about a replacement. Do not simply stop a prescribed medication on your own - the gap can be riskier than the recall.
