When scanned; however, the case labeling, lot number, and printed labeling on the product correctly identifies the product code and the solution contained in the bag. In the event the incorrect GTIN labeling is used as the singular source for product identification, unrecognized use of a potassium solution with a concentration differing from the prescription may result.

Given the increased number of leaks reported by users, it was determined to be the appropriate course of action to notify users of the potential for the occurrence of Bicarby luer-lock leaks during manipulation of the frangible and tubing when preparing the product for use for treatment.
