Preferred Pharmaceuticals, Inc: Losartan Potassium Tablets Recalled Due to Potential Carcinogenic Impurity

What You Should Do

1. Check your prescription bottle for Losartan Potassium Tab. USP 50mg to see if it matches the affected NDC numbers and lot information.
2. If you have a 30-count bottle (NDC 68788-0048-03), check for lot number A1818G (batch 01181807) with an expiration date of 3/2020.
3. If you have a 90-count bottle (NDC 68788-0048-09), check for lot number L0517L (batch 12051712) with an expiration date of 3/2020.
4. Do NOT stop taking your medication until you have spoken with your healthcare provider or pharmacist, as the risk of stopping your blood pressure medication suddenly may be higher than the risk of the impurity.
5. Contact your healthcare provider or pharmacist for guidance on obtaining a replacement or an alternative treatment.
6. Return any unused product to your pharmacy for a refund and contact Preferred Pharmaceuticals, Inc. at their Anaheim, CA facility for further instructions.
7. For additional questions, contact the FDA Consumer Complaint hotline at 1-888-723-3332 (1-888-SAFEFDA) or visit www.fda.gov/safety/recalls.
