Medline pulls convenience kits containing recalled BD ChloraPrep applicators due to contamination risk
Medline has advised that certain convenience kits it distributes must be removed from use and destroyed because they contain BD ChloraPrep applicators that are subject to a recall over possible fungal contamination.
The kits in question include the ChloraPrep Clear 1 mL single‑use sterile applicators (item 930480, lot 4032183) and the FREPP Clear 1.5 mL applicators with paper lidding (item 930299, lot 4073005).
Customers should inventory their stock, quarantine the affected kits, complete the required response forms, and then destroy the entire kits. The FDA has classified this recall as the most serious type, indicating a risk of serious injury or death if the devices are used.
