What was recalled?

This recall covers Argatroban Injection, USP, 250 mg/2.5mL (100 mg/mL), with approximately 18,991 vials affected. The company behind the recall is Par Health USA, LLC, based in Rochester, MI.

Why was Argatroban Injection, USP, 250 mg/2.5mL (100 mg/mL) recalled?

According to the FDA, the stated reason for the recall is: “Particulate matter: particulate matter identified as cellulose, polystyrene, polyethylene teraphalate, stainless steel, or stopper material in the product solution.” In plain terms, this recall relates to a sterility or contamination concern.

Sterile medicines, such as injectables and eye drops, must be completely free of microorganisms and stray particles. This recall means that sterility could not be assured or that contamination was found or suspected. Using a non-sterile product of this kind can cause infections, which is why these recalls are treated seriously.

What should you do?

If you think you may have bought Argatroban Injection, USP, 250 mg/2.5mL (100 mg/mL), compare it against the product description and identifying codes (Lot #: 83449, Exp Date: 10/2026; 82682, Exp Date: 11/2026; 86714, 87302, 87560, Exp Date: 02/2027; 87753, 88401, Exp Date: 03/2027; 88614, 88836, Exp Date: 04/…) before using it. This recall is currently listed as ongoing.

The general guidance for a matching product is to stop using it and follow the instructions in the official FDA recall notice, which may include a repair, replacement, refund, or safe disposal. When in doubt, contact Par Health USA, LLC or your local health authority.

What sterility or contamination concern actually means

Sterile medicines, such as injectables and eye drops, must be completely free of microorganisms and stray particles.
