FDA recall raises concern over blood pressure drug

The FDA has updated a nationwide recall of a blood pressure medication to Class II, giving patients, pharmacies, and health care providers a clearer picture of the potential risk associated with the product.

The recall involves Chlorthalidone Tablets, USP, 25 mg, a prescription medication used to treat high blood pressure and fluid retention.

Chlorthalidone is a diuretic, often called a "water pill." It helps the kidneys remove extra water and salt from the body through urine, which can help lower blood pressure and reduce swelling.

Because the drug is used to manage conditions that can require long-term treatment, patients should not stop taking it without first speaking with a doctor or pharmacist.

The FDA Enforcement Report lists the recall for Chlorthalidone Tablets, USP, 25 mg, in 100-tablet and 1,000-tablet bottles.

The medication was manufactured by Inventia Healthcare Limited in India and distributed in the U.S. by Rising Pharma Holdings, Inc., in East Brunswick, N.J., according to the FDA product details.
