Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Approximately 118,116 units of Thyroxine L and Thyroxyl (levothyroxine sodium) tablets and oral solutions for veterinary use are being recalled. These medications, used to treat thyroid conditions in animals, were manufactured using processing and cleaning procedures that were not properly validated, alongside other quality system failures. This means the manufacturer cannot guarantee the potency, purity, or safety of the drugs, which could lead to ineffective treatment or unexpected side effects for pets.

Risk

The lack of validated cleaning and production procedures creates a risk of cross-contamination between different drug products or incorrect dosing levels. If a pet receives a product with inconsistent active ingredients or contaminants, their thyroid condition may not be properly managed, potentially leading to serious health complications.

What You Should Do

  1. Check your pet's medication packaging for the product names 'Thyroxine L' or 'Thyroxyl' (levothyroxine sodium) in tablet or oral solution form.
  2. Verify the UPC barcodes on Thyroxine L tablet bottles against the following list: 362250301123, 362250302120, 362250303127, 362250304124, 362250305121, 362250306128, 362250307125, or 362250308122.
  3. Identify Thyroxine L Oral Solution (1.0 mg/mL) in 2 oz. bottles or Thyroxyl Tablets (0.1 mg through 0.8 mg strengths).
  4. Immediately contact your veterinarian or healthcare provider to discuss alternative treatment options for your pet and to report any adverse health changes.
  5. Return any unused medication to the pharmacy or place of purchase for a refund and contact Belcher Pharmaceuticals Inc. at their Largo, Florida location for further instructions.
  6. For additional questions or to report issues, contact the FDA Center for Veterinary Medicine at 1-240-276-9300.
