More than 11,000 bottles of Chlorthalidone 25 mg reportedly have been recalled by U.S. Food & Drug Administration.

Chlorthalidone 25 mg is a widely prescribed, long-acting diuretic (“water pill”) used to treat high blood pressure and fluid retention.

Federal records show a voluntary recall was initiated for specific batches distributed by Rising Pharma Holdings Inc. [1]

The recalled pills failed dissolution specifications, meaning they may not dissolve properly in your body and could render the medication ineffective.

Affected Batches: 100-count bottles (Batch RISA24001) and 1,000-count bottles (Batch RISB24002), both with an expiration date of April 2027.

Primary Use: Controls hypertension (high blood pressure) and reduces edema (swelling) caused by heart, kidney, or liver disease.

How it Works: Helps the kidneys remove excess salt and water from the body through urine, which lowers blood volume and reduces the strain on your blood vessels.

Typical Dosage: The standard starting dose for managing adult hypertension is 25 mg, typically taken once daily in the morning with food.
