What do you need to do?

 

• Do not stop taking your medication without speaking with your doctor. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recommends that patients continue taking their medication, as the risk of harm to a patient's health may be higher if the treatment is stopped immediately without any alternative treatment.

• Please call your doctor right away to obtain a new prescription for another appropriate medication. Your doctor will be able to prescribe another medication for you so you can continue treating your condition without interruption.  

• In light of the current COVID-19 pandemic, the FDA recommends patients and consumers not take their medicines to a drug take-back location but follow the specific disposal instructions in the medication guide or package insert or follow the agency’s recommended steps, which include ways to safely dispose of these medications at home. FDA recommended steps for safe drug disposal at home can be found at www.fda.gov.
