By the pharmaranks editorial teamReviewed against the FDA (openFDA) sourcesUpdated Aug 20, 2025How we research

Glenmark Pharmaceuticals Inc., USA recalled Theophylline extended-release tablets 400mg in Aug 2025 — an FDA Class II recall (D-0583-2025) because Failed Dissolution Specifications: Failure results (above) were reported for the Dissolution (by UV) test for commercial annual stability at the long-term shelf life stability interval, wherein the dissolution results do not comply with L3 stage dissolution criteria.

May cause temporary or medically reversible harm; low probability of serious harm.

Why it was recalled

Failed Dissolution Specifications: Failure results (above) were reported for the Dissolution (by UV) test for commercial annual stability at the long-term shelf life stability interval, wherein the dissolution results do not comply with L3 stage dissolution criteria.

Wrong strength, or it did not keep

The product did not contain what the label promised, or stopped meeting specification before its expiry date. Under-strength medicine can mean an untreated condition.

This is a manufacturing or quality failure, not a finding that the medicine is unsafe to take — across every recall we hold, none was issued for that reason. It does not mean the batch was harmless.
