Major Infant and Children Drug Recall
A voluntary recall of all unexpired lots of 43 over-the-counter infant and children medications including Tylenol, Motrin, Zyrtec and Benadryl was announced late Friday by McNeil Consumer Healthcare, a division of Johnson & Johnson. For a full list of products check the www.mcneilproductrecall.com.
During a routine inspection on April 19, the Food and Drug Administration noticed “manufacturing deficiencies” that indicated the McNeil’s manufacturing procedures were “not in control,” which affects the medicine’s composition. According to a statement by the company, “Some of the products included in the recall may contain a higher concentration of active ingredient than is specified; others contain inactive ingredients that may not meet internal testing requirements; and others may contain tiny particles.” The facility under question has been temporarily shut down while the FDA investigates.
