J&J Recalls Insulin Cartridges

Another day, another recall for embattled drug maker Johnson & Johnson. Today, J&J’s Animas division has recalled 45,000 defective insulin cartridges which can leak and also deliver sub-therapeutic doses of the insulin.

The company has warned consumers not to use the affected lots, but it might be a good idea to speak with your physician about other options such as pumps manufactured by Roche or Medtronic.
