Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Jubilant Cadista Pharmaceuticals is recalling 5,760 bottles of BuPROPion Hydrochloride Extended-Release (XL) 150 mg tablets. This recall was initiated because the medication failed to meet dissolution specifications during a nine-month stability check. This defect means the drug may not release properly into the body, which could affect how well the medication works for patients.

Risk

The medication failed to dissolve at the required rate, which may lead to the drug being released too slowly or inconsistently. This can result in the patient receiving an sub-therapeutic dose, potentially failing to manage the condition for which it was prescribed.

What You Should Do

  1. Check your prescription bottle to see if it is BuPROPion Hydrochloride Extended-Release Tablets, USP (XL) 150 mg with NDC 59746-758-30 (30-count bottle) or NDC 59746-758-90 (90-count bottle).
  2. Verify the lot number and expiration date on the side of the bottle: For 30-count bottles, look for lot BR117002C; for 90-count bottles, look for lots BR117003B or BR117004B. All affected lots have an expiration date of 11/2019.
  3. Contact your healthcare provider or pharmacist immediately for guidance and to obtain a replacement prescription before you stop taking the medication.
  4. Return any unused tablets from these specific lots to the pharmacy where you purchased them for a refund.
  5. Contact Jubilant Cadista Pharmaceuticals at their Salisbury, MD location for further instructions regarding this recall.
  6. For additional questions, contact the FDA Consumer Complaint hotline at 1-888-723-3332 (1-888-SAFEFDA).
