Propranolol Hydrochloride Extended-release Capsules

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

Why it was recalled

Failed Dissolution Test Requirements

Cause type: Dissolution failure

The tablet or capsule did not dissolve within specification. Dissolution controls how much drug the body absorbs; a failure can change the effective dose. All dissolution failure recalls.

D-160-2013 · FDA notice

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.
