The European Medicines Agencies have issued a warning about Baxter
peritoneal dialysis solutions, There is a very small potential risk to
CAPD & APD patients that they may be exposed to endotoxins which in turn
could lead to aseptic peritonitis. Aseptic peritonitis is easily
treated. If you get a cloudy bag - do what you would normally do -
contact your PD Unit. If you have not heard from your PD unit already
and you have concerns, you should contact them during office hours. If
you wish to understand the issue further I can send you by email  the European Medicine
Agencies questions and answers document. For more information please contact  info@ceapir.org
