Specialty Process Labs LLC has recalled 58 units of Thyroid USP (thyroid powder) used for manufacturing and repackaging because the drug is subpotent, meaning it may not contain the intended amount of active medication. This recall affects 0.50kg containers distributed nationwide in the United States. While no injuries have been reported, patients using finished medications made from this subpotent ingredient may not receive the therapeutic benefits they need.
A subpotent drug contains less active ingredient than required, which can lead to inadequate treatment of thyroid conditions. This may cause symptoms of hypothyroidism to return or worsen if the finished medication does not meet the specified strength.
You have 2 options:
For Manufacturing, Processing or Repackaging Use Only.
If you or a family member were harmed by this recalled product, you may have legal rights. Consider consulting a consumer protection attorney to understand your options for compensation.
