Major Pharmaceuticals levothyroxine 150 mcg recalled for subpotency
Major Pharmaceuticals is recalling specific lots of levothyroxine sodium 150 mcg tablets because they contain less active ingredient than labeled. Levothyroxine is a thyroid hormone replacement medication, and subpotent tablets may not provide the intended therapeutic dose. The affected lots are lot #N02167A (bag) and lot #N02167 (blister), both expiring in July 2026.

- Contact your pharmacist or doctor if you have this medication.
- Do not stop taking levothyroxine without talking to your doctor — stopping abruptly can be harmful.
