Baxter Initiates Voluntary Recall of All Unexpired Lots of 50mm 0.2 Micron Filters

Baxter International Inc. of Deerfield, Illinois, announced today it is voluntarily recalling all unexpired lots of 50mm 0.2 micron filters (product code H93835) due to the potential for a missing filter support membrane and for potential presence of particulate matter. These issues are associated with a component manufactured by an external supplier, and were identified prior to patient involvement as a result of complaints from customers at compounding facilities.
