FDA Posts Expanded Tylenol Recall - All
For all my blogger friends who might not have seen this:
McNeil Consumer Health care and FDA notified consumers that it is expanding a voluntary recall to include all available product lots of TYLENOL Arthritis Pain Caplet 100 count bottles, with the distinctive red EZ-OPEN CAP.
Consumers who purchased TYLENOL Arthritis Pain Caplet 100 count bottles with the distinctive red EZ-OPEN CAP from the lots (all) included in this recall should stop using the product and contact McNeil for instructions on a refund or replacement.
In November 2009, 5 lots of this product were recalled due to consumer reports of an unusual moldy, musty, or mildew-like odor that was associated with nausea, stomach pain, vomiting and diarrhea. The odor is caused by the presence of a chemical 2,4,6-tribromoanisole, believed to be the breakdown of a chemical used to treat wooden pallets that transport and store packaging materials. The health effects of this compound have not been well studied, and to date all of the observed events reported to McNeil were temporary and non-serious.

OMG! I think I have some of those. I'm going to go check the medicine cabinet. THANK YOU! I hadn't heard about this at all.
Happy New Year.

Ew yuck.
I heard this on the news...
I thought I had some, but couldn't find it in my medicine cabinet.
Probably used it all up and couldn't figure out why I wasn't feeling well at the time.
