I wouldn't worry about it too much. Seriously, I've had this happen to me before with certain medications.

I called my Pharmacy and they are aware of the recall. She said if I didn't already get a call, or letter from Walgreen's that they don't use the companies that make the "bad pills". I'm still calling my doctor Monday morning.

I saw this weeks ago and asked my doctor about it. He hadn't heard anything of the sort.

Try calling your pharmacy.  They are probably aware of it, and can tell you which drug company they use and if you need to switch.
