The FDA and Blacksmith brands have recalled four PediaCare products because they were manufactured by McNeil Consumer Healthcare, in the plant that made the now-recalled children’s liquid Tylenol, Motrin, Benadryl, and Zyrtec. Recent FDA inspections found serious problems within the plant, and this current recall was issued as a safety precaution.
The specific items recalled are:
- PediaCare Multi-Symptom Cold 4oz. UPC # 3 0045-0556-05 9
- PediaCare Long Acting Cough 4oz. UPC# 3 0045-0465-04 7
- PediaCare Decongestant 4oz. UPC# 3 0045-0554-04 8
- PediaCare Allergy and Cold 4oz. UPC# 3 0045-0552-04 4
Consumers who have these products are advised to stop using them.
