Torrent Pharmaceuticals Limited has once again expanded its recall of Losartan potassium tablets and Losartan potassium/hydrochlorothiazide tablets, the Food and Drug Administration announced Thursday.
The company has added an additional 36 lots of Losartan potassium tablets and 68 lots of Losartan potassium/hydrochlorothiazide tablets.
The recalled lots have more NMBA than what is acceptable for daily intake set by the FDA.
The recall is due once again to an impurity called N-Methylnitrosobutric acid or NMBA.
Consumers with medical questions connected to the recall are being instructed to call Torrent Pharmaceuticals at 1-800-912-9561 or email Medinfo.Torrent@apcerls.com.
