Hi Lacy -
I think we should leave it to each person to do their own checking - the number and variety of meds subject to recalls and/or new warnings/cautions is so broad that it would be a chore to wade through. I think second-hand postings of all recalls are outside our purview here on Connect.
That said, it would be great when people become aware of recalls for specific meds, they post a link in the appropriate group or discussion. For example Metformin on the Diabetes group, Losartan on the blood pressure group, Thyroid meds on the Thyroid group, etc.
As I said, when I have a link to the newsletter, I will add it; those who are interested can subscribe.

I think reminders for the latest info is always important (and great!) when it comes to pharmaceuticals. I just thought this one was good because you can filter/sort the list by different classifications to find the latest information from the FDA on a specific drug.
