Otsuka America Pharmaceutical, Inc. is voluntarily recalling certain ABILIFY® (aripiprazole) Tablets in the United States due to cross-contamination from extremely small amounts of another active pharmaceutical ingredient manufactured on the same equipment. The ABILIFY® (aripiprazole) Tablets affected are the 5 mg, 10 mg, 15 mg, and 30 mg doses. The 2 mg and 20 mg doses are not affected.
