A South Lyon compounding pharmacy is recalling 98 unexpired sterile
medications out of “an abundance of caution” after contamination was

spokesman said today.
Specialty Medicine Compounding Pharmacy learned Saturday that particulate matter of some kind was discovered in vials of a dextrose-based intravenous solution dispensed to a Henry Ford Health System hospital.
No illnesses have been reported at that hospital from the contaminated product, which has been removed. Dextrose-based intravenous solution is an intravenous (IV) solution used to supply water and calories to the body. It is also used as a diluent for other IV medications.
