50 recalls— updated every few hours from the FDA's drug enforcement database.
Medication recalls are issued when a prescription or over-the-counter drug is found to be defective, contaminated, or otherwise unsafe. The FDA's Center for Drug Evaluation and Research (CDER) oversees drug recalls in the United States and maintains the enforcement action database that powers this page.
Common causes of drug recalls include microbial or chemical contamination during manufacturing, incorrect potency (meaning a dose contains more or less of the active ingredient than labeled), labeling errors that could lead to medication errors, the presence of foreign particles or sub-potent ingredients, and products that fail sterility testing. In some cases, recalls occur because a facility failed to meet Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) standards, even if no specific product defect has been identified yet.
Drug recalls are classified the same way as food recalls. A Class I recall means there is a reasonable probability that using the product will cause or lead to serious adverse health consequences or death — for example, a blood pressure medication with no active ingredient, or an injectable drug contaminated with bacteria. A Class II recall covers products that may cause temporary, reversible health effects. A Class III recall involves products that are unlikely to cause harm but violate FDA regulations.
If you take a recalled medication, do not stop taking a prescription without speaking to your doctor or pharmacist first — abruptly discontinuing some medications can be dangerous. Bring the recalled product to your pharmacy; they can check lot numbers and arrange a replacement. Never flush medication down the toilet unless the recall notice specifically instructs you to. Use the FDA's drug take-back program or an approved disposal method.
