FDA recalls diabetes drug Metformin. So is it bad for you? Does Metformin causes cancer? Are all formulations of Metformin are recalled? I get that question a lot from my patients in Pharmacy.
TEVA Pharmaceuticals USA, Inc. Initiates Voluntary Nationwide Recall of Metformin Hydrochloride Extended-Release Tablets USP 500 mg and 750 mg Due to Detection of N-Nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA).
