FDA Investigating Certain Imported Medical Gloves The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is investigating certain imported medical gloves that appear to have been reprocessed, cleaned, or recycled and sold as new. The FDA has determined that many foreign manufacturers and shippers of medical gloves have failed to consistently provide medical gloves of adequate quality for distribution in the United States. The FDA recommends that health care facilities and providers do not purchase or use imported medical gloves from companies included on Import Alert 80-04 Surveillance and Detention Without Physical Examination of Surgeon's and Patient Examination Gloves.
