Apotex Inc. is recalling 82,705 cartons of Drospirenone and Ethinyl Estradiol (3 mg/0.03 mg) contraceptive tablets because the birth control pills may be out of sequence or missing from the blister pack. These prescription oral contraceptives were distributed nationwide in the USA in 28-day blister packs. Because the tablets may be in the wrong order or missing entirely, the product may not provide the intended contraceptive protection.
Incorrect tablet placement or missing pills in a birth control sequence can lead to a failure of the medication to prevent pregnancy, resulting in an unintended pregnancy or other hormonal disruptions.
