ICU Medical has recalled one single lot of lactated ringer’s injection, USP, and one single lot of 0.9% sodium chloride injection, USP, due to the presence of particulate matter. “Administration of a drug product that contains particulate matter could result in adverse events ranging from inflammation at the site of injection to more serious events that could include the formation of a blood clot obstructing the flow of blood which could lead to end-organ damage or death,” a [recall notice](https://www.fda.gov/safety/recalls-market-withdrawals-safety-alerts/icu-medical-inc-issues-voluntary-nationwide-recall-lactated-ringers-injection-usp-and-09-sodium?ref=fdaweb.com) says. Both products are indicated for parenteral replacement of extracellular losses of fluid and electrolytes, with or without minimal carbohydrate calories, as required by the clinical condition of the patient.
