FDA Warns Consumers About Potential Problems at Two Baltimore Pharmacies
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration is warning consumers who filled
prescriptions at The Medicine Shoppe pharmacies located at 8035A Liberty Road and 5900 Reisterstown Road in
Baltimore that they may have received drugs that were either expired or suspected counterfeit. The FDA is

drugs at these two pharmacies to contact their prescribing physician immediately for new prescriptions.
