Synopsis
https://youtu.be/3dlb0dbzWoc Acela Pharmaceuticals and the FDA are recalling its generic Thyroid USP tablets. The 30, 60, and 90 mg tablets are more potent than labeled by up to 115%. Those taking this medicine for hypothyroidism may develop hyperthyroidism. Symptoms of this disorder are heat intolerance, fatigue, weakness, high blood pressure, chest pain, rapid heart rate, arrhythmias, and undue weight loss. If you are taking this product, speak with your prescriber about a replacement prescription and likely take it back to the store and obtain an exchange. Acella may be reached at 1-800-541-4802. https://www.fda.gov/safety/recalls-market-withdrawals-safety-alerts/acella-pharmaceuticals-llc-issues-voluntary-nationwide-recall-certain-lots-np-thyroidr-thyroid #recall #thyroid
