Meclizine HCl Tablets

Class II — Moderate risk. May cause temporary or reversible harm; serious harm unlikely.

Why it was recalled

Labeling: Incorrect Instructions

Cause type: Labeling / mix-up

Wrong label, wrong strength, mixed-up products, or packaging errors. One of the most dangerous causes - you can end up taking the wrong drug or the wrong dose. All labeling / mix-up recalls.

Check, then ask. Class II means harm is possible but usually temporary or reversible. Find the lot number on your package; if it matches, ask your pharmacist about a replacement. Do not simply stop a prescribed medication on your own - the gap can be riskier than the recall.
