Englewood, CO-based Leiters Health has recalled 33 lots of vancomycin IV bags, phenylephrine IV bags, and fentanyl IV bags due to the potential for superpotency. A [recall notice](https://www.fda.gov/safety/recalls-market-withdrawals-safety-alerts/leiters-health-issues-voluntary-nationwide-recall-vancomycin-iv-bags-phenylephrine-iv-bags-and?utm%5Fmedium=email&utm%5Fsource=govdelivery) says the affected products may contain twice the labeled amount of drug. “The semi-automated IV bag filling equipment used to fill the recalled batches may not eject the IV bags properly when compressed air tanks become low or a leak was detected, causing the recalled IV bags to be dosed twice,” it says. “There is a reasonable probability that the use of the defective vancomycin and fentanyl IV bags will be associated with life-threatening adverse events.”
