We received notification today via Facebook, and have confirmed this info with the manufacturers, that Lloyd, Vedco and Clipper have recalled some thyroxine products due to an “incorrect in-process specification for blend uniformity criteria.”

We posted the info on our Facebook page, tweeted it on our AVMARecallWatch feed, and added it to our product recalls table. If you’re looking for up-to-date info on recalls, we’ve got the resources for you.
