Update On Johnson and Johnson Products Recall.
5-2-10
Problems continue for J&J concerning products  especially for children.
More than 40 products used by families for their children are effected.
It  is a voluntary recall of products made in the U.S.A and used world wide.
Children versions of  Benadryl, Motrin,  Tylenol, Tylenol Plus, and Zyrtec
are said not to meet proper standards.
Medicines may have too much concentration of active ingredient
and some may have particles that don't  meet standards.
More information can be found on www.mcneilproductrecall.com

Tylenol Products being recalled by  Johnson and Johnson continue to be in the news.  Ever since last Sept, 2009,  the companies  many products( over 60 million ) have been experiencing  something causing them to smell bad. From what I have read it may not be the products themselves but contamination in their packages. Suspected is  chemical breakdown from the wood pallets and other packaging materials.
It is called, 2,4,6, Tribromoanisole or TBA.
Products include, Tylenol, Motrim, Benadryl, Rolaids, and St. Joseph Aspirin.  You can find the lot numbers on the company website. This has resulted in a major  PR. headache for the company.  But the recall was voluntary.
No one has been serious injured or died.
Not as bad as the 1982 murders that still remain unsolved. Seven people died in the Chicago area when some unknown person put Potassium Cyanide in Tylenol capsules.
