U.S. Regulators Order all Imported Heparin Injection Products To be Tested


An alert was issued on March 14, 2008 ordering the detention of all imported supplies of heparin blood-thinner injection products so they could be tested for possible contamination, reported Reuters.

Baxter International Inc recalled most of its U.S. supplies of heparin last month after reports of deaths and serious reactions.

FDA officials have identified a contaminant in some of drug's active ingredient, which comes from a plant in China. They have not determined if the contamination caused the reactions.

If you were harmed after being administered heparin, please complete the form below and a representative of our firm will contact you as soon as possible.
