Attention ACMH Pain Center patients

There has been concern raised by patients and practitioners due to the troubling event of what is believed to be fungal meningitis infections traced to compounded steroids made by the New England Compounding Center (NECC) used in Epidural Steroid Injections. ACMH Hospital assures you that NO compounded drug products have been purchased by the ACMH pharmacy from the NECC. All steroid medications used for injections at ACMH are purchased directly from the original FDA-sanctioned manufacturer  and are not involved in this recent event.

However as a precaution, if you had a recent epidural steroid injection and were to experience symptoms such as: a worsening headache, nausea, dizziness or fever, you should seek medical attention immediately.
