The Compounding Shop in St. Petersburg has agreed to recall all of its sterile drugs, the Tampa Bay Timesreports. The FDA says it’s a precaution and there have been no reports of illness.  As Health News Floridareported last month, that pharmacy was included on a list of pharmacies where federal investigators found dangerous conditions. 

Originally founded in December 2006 as an independent grassroots publication dedicated to coverage of health issues in Florida, Health News Florida was acquired by WUSF Public Media in September 2012.
