Just found out about this through my daughter's doctor's office. We got an automated call today. Drug recall, and it is about 1 month old. Scary how we did not know about it at all. This one could be dangerous for some.
"Health recall of generic Singulair
The Food and Drug Administration is warning consumers about a recall of the generic version of Singulair.
Camber Pharmaceuticals is recalling one lot of Montelukast Sodium Tablets. They are the generic version of Singulair, and used to treat allergy and asthma symptoms.
The FDA says instead of montelukast, the bottles contain Losartan Potassium Tablets, which is used to treat high blood pressure.
Taking the wrong medicine could cause problems like low blood pressure and elevated potassium levels. This can be especially dangerous for pregnant women, because losartan could harm or kill the fetus.
The bottles under recall are lot number MON17384, expiration 12/31/2019, by Camber Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
Call your doctor or pharmacist immediately if you have the recalled bottles."
We have 4 bottles because both me and my daughter take it. Luckily ours was made by a different manufacturer. I figured this might affect at least one of our members.
