Lupin Pharmaceuticals Inc. has recalled 11,808 bottles of Lisinopril Tablets USP (20 mg) because some bottles may contain 10 mg tablets instead of the intended 20 mg dose. Lisinopril is a prescription medication used to treat high blood pressure. The mix-up was discovered following a complaint where 10 mg tablets were found inside sealed bottles labeled as 20 mg/1000-count. If you are taking this medication, you may inadvertently receive only half of your prescribed dose, which could lead to poorly controlled blood pressure.
A product mix-up means patients may receive a lower dose of medication than prescribed. Taking 10 mg of Lisinopril when a 20 mg dose is required can result in ineffective treatment of hypertension, potentially leading to a dangerous increase in blood pressure or related cardiovascular complications.
