Sichuan Friendly Pharmaceutical Co.,Ltd. is recalling approximately 2,662 kilograms of Thyroid Powder (US Pharmacopoeia grade) because of deviations from current Good Manufacturing Practices (CGMP). The affected powder has been found to have inconsistent levels of the active ingredients levothyroxine and liothyronine. This thyroid medication ingredient was distributed nationwide across the United States and also in China.
Inconsistent levels of active thyroid hormones can lead to patients receiving too much or too little medication. This can cause significant health complications, including either symptoms of hypothyroidism (underactive thyroid) or hyperthyroidism (overactive thyroid), which may require medical intervention to stabilize.
