Reliable Drug Pharmacy is voluntarily recalling all unexpired lots of compounded products due to concern of lack of quality assurance and potential mislabeling. All unexpired lots are subject to the recall. All recalled products were distributed to patients and veterinarians within California. A few products were shipped to Hawaii, New Mexico, and Michigan.
All recalled products have a label that includes Reliable Drug name or Reliable Compounding Pharmacy and expiration date. If unsure, Customers can call the pharmacy to determine the expiration date. This recall impacts all compounded products distributed between 03/24/2015 and 03/24/2016.
The recall was issued after a series of onsite inspections by the FDA. Out of an abundance of caution, Reliable Drug is voluntarily recalling all compounded product within expiry.

Im not trying to be a jerk. I know you need to monetize your site to get ‘money’ however… you promote healthy dog living.. yet you are promoting advertising for some of the most POISONOUS medications for dogs, right directly UNDER the recall alert you have for Reliable Pharmacy???
Did you realize this? If you click on 1-4 tabs underneath your ‘alert’ they are for drugs we should NOT be giving out dogs… for instance, Heartguard, Intercept????? REALLY?
All 4 of those ‘links’ are total click bait. (Do you know that this is even on your website?) Maybe your website has been hacked?
I am thoroughly confused.
I would love to hear you out on your rationalization of allowing this type of advertising on your site.
Thank you.

Hi K.C.
Some of the ads you’re seeing in your browser are automatically generated by Google Adsense, which creates targeted ads specific to the person seeing the article – the ads appear differently to each person that visits our site (while you’re seeing ads for Heartguard, I may be seeing ads for pet insurance, for example). And others are automatically generated based on the content of the article. HWe have blocked certain companies (Purina and others) from using our site to advertise, but many times, as quickly as those ads are blocked, new ones appear. Thanks for letting us know.
