Don’t stop taking your prescribed medication without talking to your doctor or pharmacist first — suddenly stopping can sometimes cause blood pressure to rise quickly, which carries its own risks.
Here are simple steps you can take today:
- Look at the bottle label: Check the manufacturer (Teva), drug name (prazosin hydrochloride), strength (1 mg, 2 mg, or 5 mg), and lot number.
- Compare with the recall list: Visit the official FDA website or your pharmacy’s recall alert page for the exact lot numbers involved.
- Contact your pharmacy: They can quickly tell you if your filled prescription matches any recalled lots and often help with replacements or refunds.
If your medication is affected, your healthcare provider can discuss switching to an alternative option that works similarly for your needs. Many safe alternatives exist within the same class or other blood pressure medication categories.
