National Drug Code
Liothyronine Sodium · 1000 TABLET in 1 BOTTLE (42794-018-06)
1 FDA recall names the code 42794-0018-06 directly. A recall still applies to particular lot numbers — compare the lot on your package with the FDA notice below, and talk to your pharmacist before stopping a prescribed medication.
Cross Contamination with Other Products: Four lots of Liothyronine Sodium Tablets, USP 5 mcg are being recalled due to the finding of a potential carryover of trace amounts of a previously manufactured product.
Labeling: Label Mixup; LIOTHYRONINE SODIUM Tablet, 5 mcg may be potentially mislabeled as HYDROCHLOROTHIAZIDE, Tablet, 12.5 mg, NDC 16729018201, Pedigree: AD46414_25, EXP: 5/16/2014.
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.
