Massachusetts shut down another compounding pharmacy over sterility concerns after a surprise inspection prompted by the nationwide meningitis outbreak linked to a different company, state officials have said.
Company Chief Executive Officer Bernard F. Lambrese said in a statement that the company will take immediate action to fix issues identified by Massachusetts investigators, including a crack in a window, the condition of flooring in a clean room and a leak in a refrigerator drain hose.
Lambrese said in the meantime patient needs are being served out of the company's pharmacy in its main headquarters in East Providence, R.I.
