On an early Sunday morning in June 2023, a tanker truck filled with gasoline skidded on an exit ramp, tumbled over, and burst into flames just below one of the nation’s busiest interstates. The inferno that followed immediately severed miles of the East Coast’s most important artery, choking off a route used by countless cars and trucks.

The suit says the recall, announced on Oct. 21, covers almost 4,000 compounded medications shipped since Feb. 18. The medications include powders, pastes, topical sprays and more.
