The latest news on the batches of recalled Children’s Tylenol is being looked into, and one of the latest discoveries is that the plant where the batches originated was lacking adequate quality-control procedures and was dirty, in addition to producing the bacteria-contaminated Children’s Tylenol.
According to the company:
The company is conducting a comprehensive quality assessment across its manufacturing operations and has identified corrective actions that will be implemented before new manufacturing is initiated at the plant where the recalled products were made.
The recall also effects other Johnson & Johnson’s brands (Tylenol, Motrin, Zyrtec and Benadryl) and the lots in question can be found here: FDA Press Release about the recalled products. The recall itself was voluntary and was stated to be based on a few different issues, the primary ones listed were based on overall quality issues. There have been no reported injuries related to the recall so far, but if you have any of the contaminated products you should discontinue their use immediately.
