Centric Compounding Recalls Wellness Injectables Over Endotoxin Contamination
The FDA says elevated endotoxin in the glutathione ingredient tainted three IV blends pulled nationwide from prescriber offices and home delivery.
- Recalled: Glutathione, Myers Cocktail, and Tri-Immune Boost, all sold in 30 mL vials.
- Nine patients reported fever, chills, chest pain, nausea, headache, or malaise after injections.
- FDA warns the tainted glutathione can trigger hypotension, anaphylactic shock, or death.
Why it matters: Compounded drugs get less testing than approved ones, so contamination shows up in patients, not before them.
