There's more trouble for Johnson & Johnson. The company issued a recall of nine million liquid Tylenol cold medicine bottles. The product was mislabeled and did not warn consumers the medicine contained alcohol. Three separate Tylenol Cold Multi-Symptom liquid products were recalled. The FDA requires manufacturers to list alcohol as an ingredient when used. However, these bottles did not acknowledge that alcohol was used in the flavoring agents.
A few days earlier, McNeil (a Johnson & Johnson division) recalled 800,000 bottles of junior strength Motrin and four million packages of children's Benadryl. Both products failed to meet manufacturing standards but the company says no threat was posed to consumers.
The Tylenol recall affects Tylenol Cold Multi-Symptom Daytime 8 oz Citrus Burst Liquid, with an NDC Code of 50580-257-08’ Tylenol Cold Multi-Symptom Severe 8 oz Cool Burst Liquid, with an NDC Code of 50580-351-08; and Tylenol Cold Multi-Symptom Nighttime 8 oz Cool Burst Liquid, with an NDC Code of 50580-269-08.
