I just wanted to bring this to everyone's attention.

"FDA alerts U.S. Residents to Recall of Counterfeit "Lipitor" Sold in the United Kingdom"

The counterfeit Lipitor 20mg tablets were recalled in the U.K. on July 28, 2005.

Basically, this alert comes to us as now a days so many order their med.'s on line and from other countries - According to the article it's not being sold in the US, but could come from an on line source. 

 Hugs, Teri tongue

I am glad my pharmacy gets it right from the drug manfacturer too. Yep I donot like to buy drugs on line at all.
