Labeling: Label Mixup: ACARBOSE, Tablet, 25 mg may be potentially mislabeled as one of the following drugs: ZINC GLUCONATE, Tablet, 50 mg, NDC 00904319160, Pedigree: AD60240_57, EXP: 5/22/2014; TOLTERODINE TARTRATE ER, Capsule, 2 mg, NDC 00009519001, Pedigree: W002724, EXP: 6/6/2014; SILDENAFIL CITRATE, Tablet, 25 mg, NDC 00069420030, Pedigree: W003646, EXP: 6/25/2014; SEVELAMER CARBONATE, Tab
Where to find this code. The NDC is printed on the pharmacy label and on the manufacturer's carton, usually as three groups of digits after “NDC”. The last group is the package size — two bottles of the same medicine can differ only in that group, and a recall may cover one but not the other.
