Just some FYI in case anyone is on this particular medication.

Came across this article this morning and links to FDA info below that for other details.


https://nypost.com/2024/06/30/us-news/capsules-from-glenmark-pharmaceuticals-recalled-over-health-risks/

“ A combined 135 batches of capsules are being pulled back from consumers because the flawed medication could lead to cardiac arrest, according to officials.”

“Glenmark Pharmaceuticals recalled 114 batches of potassium chloride extended-release capsules and American Health Packaging — on behalf of BluePoint Laboratories — recalled 21 batches of the same capsules last week.”

“The voluntary recall was issued because of the failed dissolution of the capsules, which could possibly lead to high potassium levels also known as hyperkalemia, according to the companies’ announcements posted by the US Food and Drug Administration.”
