Should you stop taking Hydrocodone bitartrate and acetaminophen?

Not on your own. Most recalls affect specific lots from one manufacturer, and stopping a prescription suddenly can be riskier than the defect. Check your lot number and NDC against the recall, then call the pharmacy that dispensed it for a replacement.
