Bayer's Liquid formulation of Leukine is withdrawn from market

By Brian F. LaBovick, Esq.

ADVERTISEMENTS

Bayer's liquid formulation of Leukine, a growth factor that helps fight infection and disease in appropriate patients by enhancing immune cell function has been withdrawn from the market. The product was withdrawn because of an upward trend in spontaneous reports of adverse reactions, including syncope (fainting), which are temporally correlated with a change in the formulation of liquid Leukine to include edetate disodium (EDTA). The upward trend in adverse reaction reporting rates has not been observed with the use of lyophilized Leukine. The product should not be used by anyone and all unused vials must be returned to the manufacturer.
