B. Braun Medical Inc. recalls B. Braun Lactated Ringer’s Injection, E7500, 1L
For Immediate Release - BETHLEHEM, PA – APRIL 28, 2026 – B. Braun Medical Inc. is voluntarily recalling two lots of Lactated Ringer’s Injection, E7500, 1L, to the hospital/healthcare facility level. The product has been found to have particulate matter in solution.
B. Braun has identified through complaints the potential for the product to contain particulate matter in solution. In the complaint investigations the particles were identified as cellulose and stearates with extremely low levels of inorganic materials such as copper. To date, B. Braun has not received any reports of adverse events related to this recall to date. If the particulate matter is observed before use, a minor delay could occur while obtaining a replacement product. If the particulate matter is loose and the container is used on a patient, there is a potential for the particulate to be infused into the circulatory system. This could lead to patient harm that may require additional medical intervention and/or lead to permanent impairment or death.
