Medication Recall Alert: Important Update for Families

A recent FDA alert announced a recall of several lots of a generic ADHD medication due to concerns about how the medication dissolves in the body.

What’s being recalled?
Sun Pharmaceutical Industries (New Jersey) has recalled select bottles of lisdexamfetamine dimesylate capsules, the generic version of Vyvanse, which were distributed nationwide.

Why the recall?
Some lots did not meet “dissolution” standards—meaning the medication may not break down the way it’s supposed to once swallowed.

FDA Risk Level:
This recall is classified as Class II, which means the medication may cause temporary or reversible side effects, but the risk of serious harm is considered low.

If your child takes lisdexamfetamine (generic Vyvanse), don’t panic, but do take a moment to check your prescription bottle. You can call our office if you’re unsure whether your child’s medication is affected—we’re happy to help.

Keeping your kids safe and healthy is our top priority. If you have any questions, just reach out!

Please contact your pharmacist for more information.
