“Because patient safety is our top priority, we immediately began addressing the issues raised and are working closely with health officials,” said Dell McCarley, Chairman & CEO of Cantrell Drug Company.  “We have received no reports of injury or illness, and it’s important to note that all of our sterile products are tested for sterility before they are shipped.  We deeply regret the impact this voluntary recall has on providers and patients, but our culture is one of safety first and we take absolutely no chances.”
