If you take Valsartan (or it's derivatives) go to NY Times and read the story - last Friday article or google it - get the batch number, and check it with your bottle - or call your pharmacy and ask what to do ...

What to do according to an article I read is to schedule a visit with your doctor but continue to take the meds until your doctor can prescribe something different.
My wife is on this stuff and she has a Dr. appointment next week. She also called her doctor and she said the same thing about taking it until she gets something else.
