From The "Working Tirelessly To Protect The Public, And Getting Results!!" File.

Got this notification in my pile o' email the other day:

Forest Pharmaceuticals, Inc. is recalling the following items/lots because product may not maintain potency throughout its labeled shelf life.

Uh-oh. Sounds serious. We can't be having things on our pharmacy shelves when there is a chance that they might not be able to maintain potency.

If only we could ship back wrinkled old men when there's a chance they couldn't maintain their potency, but I digress.

This recall is to the pharmacy level. Affected product started shipping November 2011. 
Please immediately check inventory, quarantine, and discontinue distribution of the affected product and contact your wholesaler for directions.

Right away. Sounds like few things could be more important.

LEVOTHROID TAB 50MCG 100: Lots 1093992, 1094095, 1094096. Expiration 9/2012. 

LEVOTHROID TAB 75MCG 100: Lot 1094098. Expiration 9/2012

Emphasis mine. I got this notification on September 24th.

We all work for Dunder Mifflin my friends.

Oh, that's awesome. Could definitely explain why I had trouble with my levels in the last year. Fantastic. Thanks, Forest Pharma!
