People’s Pharmacy: How can you tell if your medicine is contaminated?
As a result, it can be very challenging to determine if a particular medication has been recalled unless the pharmacy contacts the patient directly. That often comes from the corporate office and can take weeks or months after a recall.
In the case of metformin, the FDA recently announced that some extended-release formulations had unacceptably high levels of the probable carcinogen NDMA.
