On July 8, 2010, McNeil Consumer Health Care recalled 21 lots of over-the-counter medications being sold in the United States, Fiji, Guatemala, Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico, Trinidad & Tobago, and Jamaica. These are an addition to their on-going recall which was announced on January 15, 2010, after consumer complaints of an “odd odor” which was then linked to trace amounts of a chemical known as 2,4,6-tribromoanisole (TBA).
This latest recall, among other items, involves Children’s Tylenol® Meltaways.

About the Author: Ann Craig, Editor
Ann is a first-time mom in Southern California who loves buying "usefully cute" items for her son (Okay, she just likes having the excuse to satisfy her shopaholic nature). It would be even better if he also found them useful, then maybe she could get away with more items! But alas, he's happier chasing after her phone or his daddy's sneakers. When Ann's not busy playing keep-away with her son, she enjoys strolls around Disneyland, bargain-hunting and talking about all things baby! (Luckily for her, there are at least 9 people at her job who just had or who are having a baby so there's always someone to talk to. Something's in the water!!)
