Labeling: Label Mixup: LEVOTHYROXINE SODIUM, Tablet, 112 mcg may have potentially been mislabeled as the following drug: MULTIVITAMIN/MULTIMINERAL, Tablet, 0 mg, NDC 00536406001, Pedigree: AD22865_13, EXP: 5/2/2014.

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.
