By the pharmaranks editorial teamReviewed against the FDA (openFDA) sourcesUpdated May 22, 2024How we research

Pharma Nobis LLC recalled Meijer Magnesium Citrate Saline Laxative Oral Solution Dye Free in May 2024 — an FDA Class II recall (D-0501-2024) because Microbial Contamination of Non-Sterile Products - Presence of Acetobacter nitrogenifigens bacteria.

Why it was recalled

Microbial Contamination of Non-Sterile Products - Presence of Acetobacter nitrogenifigens bacteria

Sterility could not be assured

The maker could not guarantee the product was sterile. That matters most for injections and eye products, where a contaminated dose reaches past the body's defences.

This is a manufacturing or quality failure, not a finding that the medicine is unsafe to take — across every recall we hold, none was issued for that reason. It does not mean the batch was harmless.
