According to resources the makers of the Popular Children's medicine Tylenol is temporarily recalling more than 20 liquid medications for children and infants due to possible bacterial contamination and also because some ingredients in the medicines didn't meet the company's testing standards.

 

 Spotlights

Well, this is not the first time Tylenol recalled.One recalled took place in 2005 due to packaging info.Also in 2006 because particles of metal were thought to have contaminated Tylenol products.

The recalled products, made between April and June 2008, include about 50 batches of children's and infants' liquid Tylenol products.

I read that the bacteria Burkholderia cepacia was found in raw material that is used to make children's Tylenol products.

B. cepacia bacteria can produce severe and even fatal consequences in children those who have weak immune system the recalled Tylenol, should contact their health -care provider.

I am really concerned about all the recalls over the last year. It seems that companies are all about money and do not care about "humans" at all.
