Granules Pharmaceuticals Inc. is recalling 6,804 bottles of Metformin Hydrochloride Extended-Release Tablets (500 mg), a prescription medication used for type 2 diabetes. The recall was initiated after a single Paracetamol 500 mg tablet was found inside a 1,000-count bottle of the Metformin. This product was manufactured for Quallent Pharmaceuticals Health LLC and distributed to a wholesaler in Ohio.
The presence of a foreign tablet means a patient could accidentally ingest Paracetamol (acetaminophen) instead of their intended medication. This poses a risk of liver toxicity or allergic reactions, particularly for individuals with liver impairment or those already taking the maximum daily dose of acetaminophen.
