Golden State Medical Supply Inc. is recalling 2,601 30-count bottles of Prasugrel (generic Effient) 5 mg tablets because they failed dissolution testing. This means the tablets may not dissolve properly in the body as intended. Consumers who have been prescribed this medication should consult their doctor or pharmacist regarding the recall and their continuing treatment.
If the medication fails to dissolve correctly, the patient may not receive the full therapeutic dose. For a blood thinner like Prasugrel, this could increase the risk of blood clots, heart attacks, or strokes in patients being treated for cardiovascular conditions.
