Class II U.S. Food and Drug Administration

Medline Convenience Kits: 1) NAIL KIT recall: Medline has identified that the manufacturer of the sterile saline wound wash

Recall published 8 months ago

Medline has identified that the manufacturer of the sterile saline wound wash may not have manufactured products to meet the minimum required sterility assurance level required for sterile products.

The hazard: Sterility or particulate concern

Particulate matter or a sterility failure prompted this notice, the most common reason injectable and ophthalmic products are withdrawn.

What the notice says: Medline has identified that the manufacturer of the sterile saline wound wash may not have manufactured products to meet the minimum required sterility assurance level required for sterile products.

Why it matters: The product was made or packaged in conditions that cannot assure sterility, or visible particles were found in it. For anything injected, infused or used in the eye, that is a direct route for contamination into the body.

Symptoms and when to call a doctor

Watch for fever, chills, pain, redness, swelling or discharge at an injection site, and for a red, painful or suddenly blurred eye after using an eye product. Any of these needs same-day medical attention. Do not wait to see whether it settles, and tell the clinician which product and lot you used so it can be reported against the recall.

This page is general information, not medical advice. If you feel unwell, a clinician who can see you is the only person able to judge your case.

  • Keep the carton, the leaflet and the pharmacy label together until the claim is closed.
