Sandoz Inc. has recalled approximately 70,718 bottles of several prescription medications, including Nitrofurantoin (100 mg) and Isosorbide Dinitrate (5 mg, 10 mg, and 20 mg), due to concerns regarding cross-contamination with other products. These medications are used to treat urinary tract infections and chest pain (angina). If you are taking these medications, contact your doctor or pharmacist immediately to determine if your supply is part of the recall and to arrange for a safe replacement.
The medications may have been contaminated with other drug products during the manufacturing process, which could cause patients to ingest unintended active ingredients. This cross-contamination can lead to unexpected side effects or reduced effectiveness of the primary treatment.
