LegalView updated its readers on the latest Baxter Heparin news from the FDA, which discovered the source of contamination of the blood-thinning agent to be a Chinese manufacturer. 
United States of America (Press Release) March 21, 2008 --
Denver, CO - LegalView recently reported that the source of contamination for a blood-thinning injectable drug potentially responsible for at least 19 deaths, is due to a Chinese manufacturer. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recalled the injectable drug, Baxter Heparin, used during surgical procedures such as dialysis and heart surgery after a string of allergic reactions among patients occurred. It was recently discovered and announced by the FDA that a manufacturer of the drug in China is responsible for the contamination that led to the Heparin recall after batches of the drug were found to contain a chemical - over-sulfated chondroitin sulfate.
Baxter Heparin manufactured by The Baxter Healthcare Corporation, is used to thin and control blood during surgery. The recent rash of allergic reactions has compromised patient safety as approximately 785 patients who were given the injectable drug reported some kind of possible Heparin blood infection, which can include symptoms like shortness of breath. Additionally, it is advisable for these individuals to contact an experienced pharmaceutical law firm to learn about developing a Heparin lawsuit and receiving potential compensatory damages. In addition to the Heparin recall, LegalView.com offers additional resources on a variety of topics affecting millions of Americans each year.
