Torrent Pharmaceuticals is expanding the recall for blood pressure medication Losartan.

The FDA says the company is adding 36 lots of the potassium tablets and 68 lots of a different potassium tablet to the recall. The recall was prompted after the company found traces of a potentially cancer-causing impurity in the medication.

The FDA says patients need to talk to their doctor before quitting the medication and starting an alternative treatment.
