Atorvastatin 10 mg tablets recalled after failing dissolution specifications

Ascend Laboratories is recalling 141,984 bottles of Atorvastatin Calcium Tablets USP 10 mg for failed dissolution specifications.

What this means for you

Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.

Our severity reasoning: Scored 2 as a specification failure: the record states only that dissolution specifications were not met, without describing a health consequence or reporting injury.

Plain-English summary

Atorvastatin Calcium Tablets, USP, 10 mg, in 90-count, 500-count and 1000-count bottles, manufactured by Alkem Laboratories in India and distributed by Ascend Laboratories, are being recalled for failed dissolution specifications.

The recall covers 141,984 bottles from lots including 25141249 (expiring February 2027), 24144938, 24144868 and 24144867 (expiring November 2026), carrying NDCs 67877-511-90, 67877-511-05 and 67877-511-10. The product was distributed nationwide in the United States. The FDA has classified the recall as Class II.

The enforcement record states the dissolution failure without describing a health consequence, and reports no injuries.

Atorvastatin is a prescription medicine taken daily, so patients holding an affected lot should contact their pharmacy or prescriber about a replacement rather than stopping treatment on their own.
