METOPROLOL/TOPROL being Recalled by ETHEX Pharmaceutical

Once again these cheap generic imitators (ETHEX corp) are being forced by the FDA to recall TOPROL/METROPOLOL (among numerous others including AMLODIPINE) for poor manufacturing practices and unsafe standards. In conclusion pills are junk. You can read all about it (It is public knowledge)

METOPROLOL/TOPROL also being Recalled by SANDOZ Pharmaceutical

The recall is also extended to SANDOZ pharm. With all the recalls apparently with TOPROL/METOPROLOL the drug is currently in short supply and may be unavailable soon.

Thanks for the info, Ace...based on the posts I've read on these boards, all I can say is "It's about time!"

Ace, why oh why does Sandoz pharmaceuticals ring a bell to me? I suspect I may have to go back and see if any of my bp meds were manufactured by this firm.
