Full List of Amlodipine Recalls, FDA 2012-2017

There have been nine major Amlodipine recalls since 2012 and seven minor ones. There are actually 49 FDA recall orders for the popular generic, but that’s because each major recall is made up of several orders each. This drug has a much rockier recall history than most of the other most common generics. The biggest recall by far was a 2013 event from Novartis Pharmaceuticals that affected nearly 4.2 million bottles. That said, there are four other recalls in the 150,000+ range.

Finding info on any given Amlodipine recall can be challenging because of the way the FDA presents the data. Below, we’ve listed all 49 Amlodipine recalls to date, along with reasons, lot numbers, dates, manufacturers, and numbers of bottles involved.

Amlodipine Recalls

There are 49 total recalls of Amlodipine through 2017. They were either initiated by the manufacturers voluntarily or else ordered by the FDA.

The affected businesses for the nine major recalls are Lupin, Mylan, Dr. Reddy’s, Wockhardt, American Health Packaging, Novartis, and Walmart.

Minor recall firms are Health Innovations Pharmacy, Attix, Qualitest, Zydus, Daiichi Sankyo, Aidapak, and Legacy.

Nine of the recalls were relatively small. For example, a 2014 Amlodipine recall from Aidapak Services involved 180 tablets. That recall started with a labeling mixup.

Amlodipine Facts

Amlodipine is a high blood pressure drug called a calcium channel blocker. It works by dilating the blood vessels to improve blood flow. It’s used in the treatment of conditions due to coronary artery disease, including angina. It’s sold under the brand name Norvasc.

Serious side effects of Amlodipine may include irregular heartbeat, increased chest pain, and swelling in the ankles or feet. More common side effects are fatigue, dizziness, nausea, and flushing.

Major Amlodipine Recalls

There were nine major recalls of Amlodipine from 2012 through 2017. Each of these recalls affected over 20,000 bottles of the drug. They derived from various companies, including Novartis Pharmaceuticals, Walmart, Mylan Pharmaceuticals, Wockhardt USA, and Dr. Reddy’s Laboratories.

Several of the recalls were very large, spanning multiple FDA recall orders each. They’re bundled here by company and year.

There is another potentially large Amlodipine recall from Health Innovations Pharmacy that the FDA lists only as “all lots.” It’s impossible to judge the true size of that recall from FDA data.
