By Bruce Japsen | Medical product giant Baxter International Inc. and a San Diego biotech
company issued a voluntary recall of Hylenex vials after discovering
small “flake-like glass particles in a limited number of vials.”
The recall comes less than a year after Baxter launched the product as
a new way to administer intravenous fluids to rehydrate children and
infants more quickly and efficiently. Hylenex can be administered
without the tricky search for a tiny vein.
