Pfizer Quietly Recalls Three Lots of Blockbuster Drug Lyrica

Pfizer has quietly recalled three lots of its blockbuster drug Lyrica because of a manufacturing problem that could have left some capsules deformed or damaged. The voluntary recall only involves 50 mg and 75 mg Lyrica capsules with a certain lot number and expiration date.

“Please note that use of, or exposure to, product from these lots is not likely to cause health consequences,” said Lou Dallago, Vice-President of Pfizer’s U.S. Trade Group, in a “Dear Customer” letter sent to retailers who may have received a shipment of the recalled Lyrica lots in September or October 2015.
