FLUOROURACIL INJECTION USP (ADRUCIL) 5 G/100 ML (50 MG/ML)

Teva Parenteral Medicines has issued a voluntary recall of eight lots of fluorouracil injection USP (Adrucil) 5 g/100 mL (50 mg/mL). The reason cited is the potential presence of particulate matter, namely, aggregate of silicone rubber pieces from a filler diaphragm and fluorouracil crystals.

Individual 5 g/100 ml vials have the NDC code 0703-3019-11; the pharmacy shelf pack has the NDC code 0703-3019-12. The 5 g/100 ml vials are also labeled to indicate that the pharmacy bulk package is not for direct infusion.
