AvKARE has voluntarily recalled 3,817 cartons of Celecoxib (200 mg) capsules because one Tadalafil (5 mg) tablet was found inside a bottle from the same manufacturing batch. Celecoxib is a prescription medication used to treat pain and inflammation. If a patient accidentally takes Tadalafil instead of Celecoxib, it could cause serious health issues, particularly for individuals who take other medications for heart conditions.
Taking Tadalafil (the active ingredient in Cialis) unintentionally can cause a dangerous drop in blood pressure. This is especially life-threatening for patients taking prescription nitrates (like nitroglycerin) for chest pain or heart problems.
