By Victoria Brown on May 3, 2010

Digital News Report – There have been a children’s medicine recall from McNeil issued which include their brands Children’s Tylenol, Children’s Motrin, Zyrtec, and Children’s Benadryl. The reason for the recall is that they have not met their quality standards. While no serious medical events have occurred says the company, they still want consumers to stop using the product. You can either get a refund for the average retail price of the product involved in the recall or you can get a coupon for a free replacement (s) when the same product becomes available again.

The recalled medicines should be discontinued and not taken. The voluntary recall was announced jointly from McNeil and the FDA are they asking consumers to check their medicine cabinet as the medicine could either have a higher active ingredient than intended, contain inactive ingredients that might not meet their standards or they may contain tiny particles.
