The recall affects certain lots of prazosin hydrochloride capsules, specifically 1 mg, 2 mg, and 5 mg bottles, which can be identified by lot number and expiration date.

It is essential to consult a physician before stopping any medication, even if the bottles are affected by the recall.

Affected bottles can be identified by checking the lot number and expiration date as outlined in the FDA report.
