Frequently Asked Questions
When a drug safety issue is identified — through FDA inspections, laboratory testing, adverse event reports, or manufacturer quality checks — the responsible company issues a recall to remove the affected products from the market. Pharmacies pull the product from shelves, and consumers are advised to contact their healthcare provider for alternatives.
The leading causes include cGMP deviations, impurity contamination (including nitrosamines like NDMA), failed dissolution or stability testing, sterility issues, potency problems, labeling errors, and foreign particle contamination.
