CareFusion 303, Inc. recalls BD Pyxis MedStation ES (Med ES Main)

Due to an automated dispensing cabinet software issue, when a medication single order contains more than one component and at least one is unavailable for a multi-item or combination order, the order may display as grayed out; alternate location tooltip will display "Server connection failed," not listing other area devices where unavailable item(s) may be found, which may lead to delayed therapy.
