Class II · Moderate risk
Duloxetine D/R
CGMP Deviations: Presence of N-nitroso-duloxetine impurity above FDA recommended interim limit
DULoxetine DR USP
Class II — Moderate risk. May cause temporary or reversible harm; serious harm unlikely.
Why it was recalled
CGMP Deviations: the presence of a Nitrosamine Drug Substance Related Impurity (NDSRI), N-Nitroso-Duloxetine above the interim acceptable intake limit
Cause type: Nitrosamine impurity
Trace nitrosamine impurities such as NDMA, NDEA or NMBA found above the acceptable daily limit. Nitrosamines are probable human carcinogens that can form during manufacturing or storage. This is the cause behind the large valsartan, losartan and ranitidine (Zantac) recalls. All nitrosamine impurity 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. This recall is now terminated, which means the firm has finished removing the affected product; anything on pharmacy shelves today should be unaffected.
