A nationwide recall is underway for generic cetirizine (Zyrtec) tablets after some bottles were accidentally mixed with ranitidine — the heartburn drug formerly sold as Zantac. The mix-up, spotted by a pharmacy tech due to wrong pill color, poses serious risks for those allergic to ranitidine, including life-threatening anaphylaxis. Though no illnesses have been reported yet, affected 5mg bottles are being pulled from shelves nationwide. Check the FDA’s lot number list if you have the medication, and consult your doctor if you’re unsure. Report any adverse reactions to the FDA to help keep everyone safe.
