The... A rare drug-resistant bacteria called Pseudomonas aeruginosa, which has been found in some recently recalled eyedrops, is continuing to lead to injuries. The eyedrops named in the CDC report are artificial tears from EzriCare and Delsam Pharma. The CDC says the eyedrops have caused infections in at least 68 patients in 16 states.
EzriCare and Delsam distribute eye drops from Global Pharma Healthcare, a company that issued a recall of its artificial tears in February after the product was linked to an outbreak of the drug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa infections, including some detected in patients’ blood, urine and lungs.
