Lloyd Inc is recalling 1,482 bottles of Thyro-Tabs (levothyroxine sodium tablets, USP), a medication for pets. Approximately 1,158 bottles labeled as 0.5 mg may actually contain 0.3 mg tablets, and 324 bottles labeled as 0.3 mg may contain 0.5 mg tablets. This labeling error means your pet could be receiving significantly more or less medication than prescribed by their veterinarian. Owners of pets using these medications should contact their veterinarian or pharmacist immediately to determine if their supply is affected and to obtain the correct dosage.
Incorrect dosage of thyroid medication can lead to serious health issues; receiving a lower dose than prescribed can result in untreated hypothyroidism, while a higher dose can lead to symptoms of thyrotoxicosis, such as rapid heart rate, weight loss, and increased thirst.
Contact healthcare provider and return product.
