Tylenol Recalls

Tylenol Recalls: From GovGab:
"My Dad is nothing if not practical. Of all the presents we've gotten him over the years for birthdays, Father's Day, or Christmas his drugsfavorite gift by a landslide has been the hospital-sized bottle of Tylenol my sister got him while she was in college. "Now THIS is something I can use." The man spent 20+ years in a household with three women and a lifetime as a Philadelphia sports fan. Need I say more?

Now, my Dad and everyone else better check their medicine cabinets. McNeil Consumer Healthcare Division, the makers of Tylenol, have announced a recall. This includes Tylenol, Motrin, and Benadryl.

Consumers have complained about a moldy, musty smell in the over-the-counter drugs which has led to nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea.

The recalled products include:

  • Junior Strength Motrin
  • Children's Tylenol Grape Meltaway Tablets
  • Extra StrengthTylenol
  • Extra Strength Tylenol Rapid Release Geltabs
  • Motrin Caplets
  • Extra Strength Rolaids Fresh Mint Tablets
  • St. Joseph Aspirin Chewable Orange Tablets
  • Benedryl Allergy Ultratab Tablets

While no serious effects have been reported, you might want to check twice before treating your next headache"
