QUESTION
How Do I Find Out If I Received Recalled Vasartan Pills?
ANSWER
In July 2018, the FDA announced a series of drug recalls involving generic valsartan sold by a number of different drug manufacturers, which may contain an impurity known to increase the risk of cancer. The recalled valartan and valsartan HCTZ pills all contained ingredients from a supplier in China, which has been contaminated with N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) for years.
The lawyers at Saiontz & Kirk, P.A. are reviewing potential Valsartan and Valsartan HCTZ recall lawsuits for individuals who used potentially contaminated pills and developed:
- Liver Cancer
- Kidney Cancer
- Pancreatic Cancer
- Colorectal Cancer
- Bladder Cancer
- Severe Liver Injury
If you or a loved one may have received recalled valsartan pills and developed any of these injuries, request a free consultation and case evaluation..
Recalled Valsartan and Valsartan HCTZ Pills To Date
Given the large scope of products distributed in recent years that may be contaminated, the FDA has expanded and widened the valsartan and valsartan hctz recalls several times. To help patients, doctors and pharmacies identify pills that appear to be safe, the FDA has published a list of valsartan products that have NOT been recalled.
The following drug manufacturers and doses have been identified as recalled valsartan pills that may contain the cancer-causing impurity NDMC:
