U.S.A.'s interesting news

MedWatch - The FDA Safety Information and Adverse Event Reporting Program An update to a previous MedWatch Safety Alert: Infants’ Ibuprofen Concentrated Oral Suspension by Tris Pharma: Recall - Due to Potential Higher Concentrations of Ibuprofen wasjust updated on the FDA Recalls webpage. Three additional lots of Ibuprofen Oral Suspension Drops, USP, 50 mg per 1.25 mL, have been added.   You can read the complete recall alert at: https://www.fda.gov/Safety/Recalls/ucm627780.htm Nature’s Rx Issues Voluntary Nationwide Recall of Silver Bullet 10x to Undeclared PDF-5 Inhibitors in the Product Nature’s Rx is voluntarily recalling quantity lots of Silver Bullet 10x, description of dosage form to the hospital, retail or consumer level. This recall has been initiated because the product was found to contain undeclared sildenafil and tadalafil, the active ingredient in Viagra and Cialis respectively, which are PDE-5 inhibitors. The undeclared PDE-5 inhibitors in the product may pose serious health risks because consumers with underlying medical issues may take the products without knowing that they can cause serious harm or interact in dangerous ways with other drugs they may be taking. For example, PDE-5 inhibitors may interact with nitrates found in some prescription drugs (such as nitroglycerin) and thus can lower blood pressure to dangerous levels. Consumers with diabetes, high blood pressure, or heart disease often take nitrates.
