Was there a duloxetine recall by Ajanta Pharma?
I can’t confirm an Ajanta Pharma duloxetine recall from the information provided in your request. “Recall” can also be used for different situations (a regulator-ordered recall, a retailer/manufacturer voluntary recall, or an issue tied to a specific batch), and the details matter for identifying what happened.
Which duloxetine product and batch would be affected?
If a recall exists, it will typically name:
- the exact brand/manufacturer (Ajanta vs another labeler),
- the strength (e.g., mg dose),
- the dosage form (capsule/tablet),
- and the lot/batch number and expiry date.
To verify quickly, you’d usually cross-check the lot details against regulator postings (for example, FDA recalls in the U.S.) and pharmacy/wholesaler lot notices.
How to check if your duloxetine is part of a recall
Even without a confirmed recall link, patients commonly do these steps:
- Look on the bottle/box for the lot/batch number and expiry date.
- Compare those details to any recall notice listing.
- If the product matches, stop using the affected batch and contact the pharmacist or prescriber for a replacement.
What to do if you have recalled duloxetine on hand
Duloxetine is a medication where abruptly stopping can cause problems (including withdrawal symptoms and symptom rebound). If you think your batch is affected, the safest move is:
- contact your pharmacist/doctor to switch to a non-affected lot,
- do not stop suddenly without medical guidance.
If you share details, I can narrow it down
Send any of the following and I’ll help you identify whether it matches a recall notice and what actions are recommended:
- country (U.S., India, etc.),
- brand name as shown on the label,
- strength (e.g., 30 mg/60 mg),
- and lot/batch number plus expiry date.
