According to the agency, some lots of the drug may contain nitrosamine impurities, which are chemicals that could potentially increase cancer risk over long-term exposure.⁠

The recall involves 1 mg, 2 mg, and 5 mg capsules distributed by Teva Pharmaceuticals and Amerisource Health Services across the U.S.⁠

Patients currently taking prazosin should not stop their medication without medical guidance.⁠
