Drug Recalls

A drug recall is the most effective way to protect the public from a defective or potentially harmful product. A recall is a voluntary action taken by a company to remove a defective drug product from the market or warn patients and consumers about a potential risk.

The list below includes voluntary drug recalls in which public notification has been issued.

Visit FDA’s role in drug recalls for more information.
Visit Recalls, Market Withdrawals, & Safety Alerts for all FDA-regulated products.
Follow FDA Recall Information on X (formerly Twitter).



A Terminated Recall is a recall where the FDA has determined that all reasonable efforts have been made to remove or correct the violative product in accordance with the recall strategy, and proper disposition has been made according to the degree of hazard. Recalls that are not indicated as being terminated are either ongoing or completed.
