Pfizer recalls 3 blood pressure medications
CNN
Pfizer has recalled three blood pressure medications over concerns they are tainted with a possible carcinogen. The recall is voluntary, and the company is asking those who use them to consult their doctor.
Accuretic and two generic drugs distributed by Greenstone -- quinapril and hydrochlorothiazide tablets and quinapril HCl/hydrochlorothiazide tablets -- are subject to the recall.
The medications treat hypertension, which increases the risk for potential dangerous cardiovascular events like strokes.
