TG SAFE issued the recall after identifying the specific batch APRCT‑2501 as unsuitable for continued sale, directing manufacturers and distributors to remove the product from all points of sale.
Consumers are instructed to examine the batch number printed on their Paracet 500 packs and to discard any tablets that bear the APRCT‑2501 code.
The authority further advises anyone who may have purchased the affected batch to consult a pharmacist or doctor for guidance on safe alternatives or any necessary medical advice.
Paracet 500 is a widely used over‑the‑counter analgesic in Telangana; batch recalls such as this are precautionary measures intended to safeguard public health, though no specific adverse events have been reported in connection with this lot.
Pharmacies and retailers are expected to cooperate with TG SAFE by pulling the recalled stock from shelves and updating inventory records, while the regulator will continue to monitor compliance.
