BD is recalling products that contain the affected lidocaine ampules. Customers are instructed to: 1. Not to use the affected Lidocaine ampules. 2. Secure an alternative local Lidocaine drug prior to entering the procedural environment. 3. Upon opening the kit, remove and destroy the drug product from the BD convenience kits/procedure trays at the point of use, within a controlled and sterile environment to maintain the sterility of the remaining components within the kit. All other kit/tray components are safe to use. 4. If affected Lidocaine ampule was previously used without issue, no additional treatment or clinical follow up is required. 5.
