Hospira has been dealing with FDA concerns for years for plants in the U.S. and more recently in India. But despite being told more than a year ago that it should have a "global corrective action plan" for both its foreign and U.S. plants, new issues have surfaced, this time for a plant in Australia that makes specialty injectable drugs. As of October 15, 2014, Hospira is recalling "certain lots of several products in its LifeCare line of flexible intravenous solutions due to the potential for leakage." But the description does not get to the depth and breadth of the recall, which is for 54 lots of nearly a dozen products. That includes two dozen lots of saline solution in the 1000-mL size, an essential hospital product that has been in short supply for months.
