Zyrtec Recall Alert: Check Your Pills | Sacramento News

A major recall is underway for a generic Zyrtec allergy pill after it was potentially contaminated with ranitidine, a heartburn drug. The issue was spotted when a pharmacy tech noticed red dots and discoloration on some tablets, triggering an investigation by the FDA. People sensitive to ranitidine risk serious reactions like low blood pressure or fainting — though no illnesses have been reported yet. The recalled 5mg cetirizine tablets (bottles of 100) were distributed nationwide by Rising Pharma Holdings and carry lot numbers GY825029 through GY825032, expiring October 2028. If you have these pills, contact Rising Pharma Holdings or consult your doctor if you experience any symptoms. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
