What is a compounding center?
A compounding center is a company, like NECC, that repackages a drug in a smaller dosage or sells the drug in a different formula that treats a specific condition. In this instance, the drugs sold to medical providers in the U.S. were an altered or reduced dosage drug that was infected with a fungus.
The compound that was sold by NECC is called methylprednisolone acetate and was sold to 75 clinics in 23 states.
What facilities in Maryland were shipped the fungus contaminate steroids?
- Baltimore Pain Management, Baltimore, Maryland

Who regulates the compounding centers in the U.S..?
The compounding centers in the U.S.. are not overseen by the
U.S.. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), instead they are regulated by each state where the compounding center is located. There are about 3,000 compounding centers in the U.S.., that number has dramatically risen since 2000 when there were virtually none.
What should I do if I believe I received an injection of the infected steroids?
If you believe that you received an injection of the tainted steroids, you should contact your primary healthcare provider as soon as possible and schedule an appointment for a review. It is now believed that the incubation period may be longer than originally thought. The experts are saying that that is may take 6 to 42 days for signs of the infection to present itself.
How many vials of the steroid were shipped?
It is estimated by NECC that it shipped 17,676 vials of the tainted steroid.
