The FDA said that Denton Pharma Inc had recalled several batches of unexpired ranitidine tablets due to the possible presence of N-Nitrosodimethylamine NDMA, NBC reported on Friday. Appco Pharma also recalled batches of ranitidine because of the potential presence of NDMA. The recalled lots have an expiration date of April or May 2021. None of the recalled lots has been associated with any injuries or adverse events, according to the NBC. FDA testing of recalled ranitidine detected NDMA levels similar to the levels found in grilled and smoked meats, the NBC said.
