Tylenol Extra Strength, Rolaids, Motrin, Benadryl Among Recalled Drugs

(ABC News) UPDATED 2010-01-15
A recall of Tylenol arthritis caplets initiated by drugmaker McNeill Healthcare LLC last month has been expanded to include such over-the-counter medications as Tylenol Extra Strength, Rolaids, Motrin, Benadryl, St. Joseph Aspirin, and Simply Sleep, for a total of 27 products. McNeill initiated the voluntary recall because of consumer complaints about stomach problems and a musty smell in some products. The problems were linked to a chemical called 2,4,6-tribromoanisole (TBA), which came from the wood pallets used to transport the medicines. TBA poses no fatal risk to those who ingest it, the company stressed. For complete information on how to return products, click here.   Read full story >
