FDA Alert: Thousands of Bottles of Popular Blood Pressure Medication Recalled
· Telemundo McAllen (KTLM)
The FDA has issued a recall for over 11,400 bottles of chlorthalidone tablets, a medication used to treat high blood pressure. The recall, announced on June 5 by Inventia Healthcare Limited, was prompted by a failure to meet dissolution specifications. The affected bottles, which have an expiration date of April 2027, are part of a growing trend of recalls in the hypertension medication category. This follows a previous recall in October involving over half a million bottles of prazosin hydrochloride due to concerns over dangerous levels of a carcinogenic substance. Patients are advised to contact their doctor or pharmacy if they have these tablets.
