An issue was identified after a redesign of the auto compounding device. The compounder cannot meet the designed accuracy specification when dispensing into bags. After reviewing the initial design of the device, it was determined the dispensing volume validation was not properly done and none of the compounders on the market can meet the stated specifications.
On 6/23/2016, the recalling firm sent written recall notices to their distributors and end users notifying them of the recall. Customers and consignees were instructed to not use the devices, locate and quarantine all affected devices, and to complete the response form.
