Common Blood Pressure Drug Chlorthalidone Recalled Over Dissolution Testing
Original: fda chlorthalidone dissolution testing recall
A recall of chlorthalidone, a widely prescribed blood pressure medication, is drawing attention after reports linked it to FDA dissolution testing failures. Dissolution testing checks whether a pill dissolves properly in the body, so failing tablets may not deliver the intended dose. Patients are advised not to stop taking their medication suddenly and to consult a pharmacist or doctor about alternatives.
Why now: A recall of a commonly used blood pressure medication raises safety and supply concerns for the many patients who take it.
