Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Par Pharmaceutical Inc. is recalling 9,936 cartons of Frovatriptan Succinate Tablets (2.5mg), a prescription medication used to treat migraine headaches. The product is incorrectly labeled with an expiration date of August 2022, when the actual expiration date is April 2022. Using the medication after its true expiration date could mean the drug is less effective than intended.

Risk

The incorrect labeling may lead consumers to use the medication four months past its actual expiration date. Over time, the potency or stability of the drug may decrease, potentially resulting in inadequate treatment of migraine symptoms.
