Alvogen, Inc. is recalling a specific lot of Thyro-Tabs (levothyroxine sodium) 150 mcg tablets after a pharmacy reported finding 88 mcg tablets inside a 150 mcg bottle. This mix-up means patients may inadvertently take a lower dose of their thyroid medication than prescribed. The recall affects 1,000-count bottles distributed nationwide throughout the United States.
Taking a lower dose of levothyroxine than prescribed can lead to symptoms of hypothyroidism, such as fatigue, weight gain, and cold intolerance, as the body is not receiving the intended amount of thyroid hormone replacement.
