Several lots of a prescription ADHD medication have been recalled due to “failed dissolution specifications,” the Food and Drug Administration announced last week.\n<\/p>\n
Sun Pharmaceutical Industries of New Jersey recalled certain bottles of lisdexamfetamine dimesylate capsules, a generic version of Vyvanse that was sold nationwide. The recall was initiated on Oct. 28 and given a Class II risk level by the FDA on Oct. 30.\n<\/p>\n
The Class II classification indicates that the recalled medication \u201cmay cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences,\u201d but the risk of serious health consequences is low.\n<\/p>\n
The recall affects bottles of lisdexamfetamine dimesylate capsules, a drug usted to treat attention-deficit\/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in children, adolescents, and adults.\n<\/p>\n

Sun Pharmaceutical Industries recalled the medication due to \u201cfailed dissolution specifications,\u201d meaning the drug did not dissolve as expected in laboratory settings, which could make it less effective.\n<\/p>\n
The manufacturer did not issue a press release about this recall, so there are no specific instructions for medication users.\n<\/p>\n
However, it’s not recommended to stop ADHD medication abruptly, as it could cause withdrawal symptoms.\n<\/p>\n
Check your medications at home, and if you have any bottles affected by the recall, don\u2019t take them. Instead, contact your healthcare provider or pharmacy for guidance on obtaining a replacement bottle or refund.<\/p>\n
