Angels for Change is proud to announce a significant milestone in Project PROTECT. Fagron Sterile Services US (FSS), a recipient of the 2023 Project PROTECT grant and a leader 503B outsourcing, has completed the Preparation and Protective phases for preservative-free Dextrose 70% injection solution. The significance of this achievement is highlighted by the recent flooding at Baxter's North Cove manufacturing site due to Hurricane Helene, which prompted the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to include Dextrose on its drug shortage list as of October 12, 2024. The strategic preparations made through Project PROTECT, Dextrose will remain accessible to vulnerable patients, especially PICU and NICU babies, amid anticipated supply chain disruptions.
Angels for Change is proud to announce the continued expansion of Project PROTECT, a pioneering initiative to mitigate drug shortages by building an onshore resilient and redundant supply of vulnerable essential medicines.
