Delaware news prompts new worry over reach of tainted Baxter Heparin. Free case review from our lawyers via the form below.
In recent news from the Tribune, Baxter International Inc., maker of Heparin, said Delaware health officials are investigating whether the deaths of two patients are linked to a brand of heparin blood thinner Baxter sells in intravenous bags.
According to the Tribune, use of a diluted form of Baxter's Heparin in pre-mixed bags, has been suspended by Delaware officials at Beebe Medical Center in Lewes, Delaware since May 8, 2009.
Adverse reactions were reported in five patients who had problems that included internal bleeding in the brain.
According to news reports, the heparin used in these patients is in pre-mixed bags and not the same as the product solid in vials that was part of an international recall by Baxter last year.
It has also been reported that the heparin used by the Beebe Medical Center in Delaware came from a North American-based supplier unlike the heparin Baxter said was adulterated in a China-based supply chain.
