Product
Safetussin Max Strength Multi-Symptom Cough, Cold and Flu tablets blister packs
Description
This recall involves Safetussin Max Strength Multi-Symptom Cough, Cold and Flu 24-count caplet blister packs. They are labeled with "Safetussin," "Multi-Symptom," "Cough, Cold & Flu" and "Safe for adults with High Blood Pressure, Diabetes." They were sold in a blue, orange and red cardboard box with the drug facts label on the back.
Hazard
The Safetussin over-the-counter cold medicine contains acetaminophen, which must be in child-resistant packaging as required by the Poison Prevention Packaging Act. The packaging of the products is not child-resistant as a tablet can be pushed through the foil, posing a risk of poisoning if the contents are swallowed by young children.
Incidents / injuries
None reported
