Markham, ON (April 30, 2010) – Today, McNeil Consumer Healthcare, Division of McNEIL-PPC, Inc., in consultation with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), announced a voluntary recall of certain over-the-counter (OTC) liquid products manufactured in the United States.

suspension products and Children’s TYLENOL® Cough & Runny Nose liquid suspension products should stop using the product and contact McNeil Consumer Healthcare (Canada) at 1-888-222-6036 for more information.

How convenient that you wait on the phone for over an hour and no information on their website as to where we are to go to get a refund?? I know 6$ isn’t much but times it by 100,000 users and it jumps quite quickly..what a joke!!
Not a surprise… these firms are seldom prepared for things like recalls.
Maybe try again in a few days after the initial panic has abated…
I agree. It must require more regulation. It couldn’t possibly be an honest mistake that the company took corrective action to remedy, and therefore not affected by any laws.
Everything these days is getting on store shelves without proper testing or regulation it would seem: everything from meat to baby furniture and toys to now, kid’s medication…and the right is calling for far less regulation in our lives. Yikes!
