What to do

  1. Check your levothyroxine bottle for lot number N02200A, N02200B (bag), or N02200 (blister) with expiration date 10/2026.
  2. If you have affected tablets, contact your pharmacy or prescriber before stopping or replacing your medication.
  3. Do not stop taking levothyroxine without guidance — thyroid hormone replacement is critical for your health.
