Alaris Pump Recall Lawsuit | 2025 Latest Updates

What’s the Problem?

The issue involves allegations that certain Alaris™ and BD Alaris™ Pump Modules were serviced using previously recalled bezel kit assemblies manufactured between April 2011 and June 2017 [1.].

These legacy bezels may weaken over time, potentially causing free flow, over‑infusion, under‑infusion or infusion interruption. BD has reported this recall has been associated with serious injury and patient death.

The FDA published a publicly posted recall update in mid‑July 2025. Although we are not aware of any lawsuits filed against Becton Dickinson and Co., we are actively investigating potential claims involving injuries such as fluid overload, dosing errors, infusion interruption, and complications resulting from over‑ or under‑infusion.

As of July 30, 2025, no lawsuits or class actions involving Alaris Pump Modules serviced with legacy bezels have been filed. No MDLs, court filings, or settlements have been publicly reported.

The recall and its serious implications were disclosed by BD on July 15, 2025, and published by the FDA on July 17, 2025, referencing incidents of serious injury and patient death.
