Class II · Moderate risk Terminated Initiated Nov 1, 2013 (13 years ago)

Acetaminophen suspension liquid

Class II — Moderate risk. May cause temporary or reversible harm; serious harm unlikely.

Why it was recalled

Defective Delivery System: There is a remote potential that cartons of product could be co-packaged with an oral dosing syringe without dose markings.

Cause type: Packaging defect

Failed child-resistant closures, leaks, cracked containers, or a defective delivery device. Packaging failures risk accidental exposure (especially to children) or product contamination. All packaging defect recalls.

FDA recall number
D-003-2014 · FDA notice

Check, then ask. Class II means harm is possible but usually temporary or reversible. Find the lot number on your package; if it matches, ask your pharmacist about a replacement. Do not simply stop a prescribed medication on your own - the gap can be riskier than the recall. This recall is now terminated, which means the firm has finished removing the affected product; anything on pharmacy shelves today should be unaffected.
