American Health Packaging: Raloxifene Hydrochloride Tablets Recalled for Failed Dissolution Specifications

Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

American Health Packaging is recalling 973 cartons of Raloxifene Hydrochloride (60 mg), a prescription medication used to treat or prevent osteoporosis and reduce the risk of invasive breast cancer. The recall was issued because the tablets failed dissolution testing during stability checks, meaning the medication may not break down properly in the body as intended. This defect could potentially reduce the effectiveness of the drug for patients relying on it for treatment.

Risk

Low dissolution results mean the medication may not be absorbed into the bloodstream correctly, which can lead to a lower-than-intended dose and reduced clinical benefit for the patient. No specific injuries or adverse events have been reported at the time of this recall.

What You Should Do

  1. Check your medication packaging for Raloxifene Hydrochloride Tablets, USP, 60 mg in 30-count cartons (containing 3 blister cards of 10 tablets each).
  2. Verify the identifying numbers on the carton: NDC 60687-266-21 and the Unit Dose NDC 60687-266-11.
  3. Look for Lot #180276A with an expiration date of 02/29/2020 located on the packaging.
  4. Contact your healthcare provider or pharmacist immediately for guidance if you are using this specific lot, as you may need a replacement prescription to ensure your treatment remains effective.
  5. Return any unused tablets from the affected lot to the pharmacy where you purchased them for a refund.
  6. Contact American Health Packaging directly for further instructions regarding this recall.
  7. For additional questions, call the FDA Consumer Complaint hotline at 1-888-723-3332 (1-888-SAFEFDA) or visit www.fda.gov/safety/recalls.
