Has Cymbalta (duloxetine) been recalled?
I can’t confirm a current or past recall from the information provided here. Recall status depends on the specific product (strength/formulation), manufacturer/labeler, and the country/regulator handling the recall.
How to check quickly for a Cymbalta recall
If you want to verify right now, check the regulator or the pharmacy/supplier notice for your location. In the U.S., the most direct sources are:
- FDA recall announcements (drug safety recalls)
- Manufacturer press releases or customer alerts
What details to gather so the recall check is accurate
To make sure you’re checking the correct Cymbalta, note:
- Strength (for example, 20 mg, 30 mg, 60 mg)
- Dosage form (delayed-release capsules vs other forms)
- Lot number and expiration date (from the bottle)
- NDC (National Drug Code) number
- Manufacturer/labeler information (often near the NDC)
If you have Cymbalta at home: what to do now
If you think your bottle might be affected:
- Don’t stop Cymbalta abruptly. Stopping suddenly can cause withdrawal-like symptoms.
- Contact your pharmacy or prescriber and ask whether your exact lot/NDC is impacted.
- If the label or the lot is listed on an official recall notice, follow the recall instructions for returning or replacing the medication.
Tell me your country and what’s on your bottle
If you share the country (e.g., U.S., Canada, UK, EU) and the lot number (or NDC) from your Cymbalta bottle, I can help you figure out what to check for that specific product.
