Allergy Medications on Recall List

Perhaps you heard over the week-end that McNeil Consumer Healthcare has recalled numerous medications for "not meeting quality standards". The reasons range from products that "may contain a higher concentration of active ingredient than is specified"; or products that "may contain inactive ingredients that may not meet internal testing requirements"; or products that "may contain tiny particles". Whatever the case, we all need to go through our medicine cabinets and medication pouches.

Benadryl® and Zyrtec® are on the recalled list. So is Tylenol® and Motrin®.

Check out this list of recalled medications. Print it out and compare it to what you have.
