Clinical Specialties is voluntarily recalling Avastin unit dose syringes.
The product has or potentially could result in an infection within the eye. Clinical Specialties has received reports of five intra-ocular infections from physician’s office and this is how the problem was identified.
This product was being used solely as an off label use by an ophthalmologist for macular degeneration and is packaged in sterile syringes.
