Because of the risk of accidental overdose, particularly in children under 2 years old, Johnson and Johnson is recalling several varieties of its popular Tylenol cold medicine.
A note on the Tylenol home page directed to health professionals implies that raw materials produced at the same location at the same time as inactive Tylenol ingredients were found to contain a harmful bacteria. Though none of this bacteria was found in Tylenol products, the company has recalled certain products produced between April and June of 2008 as a precaution.http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/booster_shots/2009/09/some-explanation-if-you-look-for-it-on-the-childrens-tylenol-recall.html
