Important Patient Safety Notice – Lercanidipine 10mg Recall

A precautionary recall has been issued for one batch of Lercanidipine Hydrochloride 10mg Tablets (Accord-UK Ltd).
Batch number M2510877 may contain a blister strip of Lercanidipine 20mg tablets instead of the correct 10mg strength due to a packaging error.

The risk to patients is considered low, and the recall is being managed at pharmacy and wholesaler level.

What should patients do?

If you take Lercanidipine 10mg, please check the strength of your tablets.

If you have any concerns or believe you may have received tablets of the incorrect strength, please contact your community pharmacy for advice.

Do not change or stop your prescribed medication without speaking to a healthcare professional.

Taking 20mg instead of 10mg may cause a greater reduction in blood pressure, potentially resulting in dizziness, headaches, flushing or palpitations.

If you feel unwell or experience symptoms, seek medical advice.

If something doesn't feel right, speak to your GP practice. Finding cancer early can make treatment more successful.
