Not sure where to actually place this alert for the BYC community.
Gracious Staff, please determine where this post/thread is most appropriate and move if necessary. Thank you.

It's cold/flu season and a lot of folks could be using OTC medications. While there are recalls all the time, this one seems to be particularly serious and could affect a wide variety of people.
Please look at the medications you have and see if it's included in the lot numbers being recalled.

Hope everyone stays well.

Wow, well if that isn't something else! We'd take cough medicine and get infected with something else.

Thanks for sharing! This should be shared far and wide, especially with those that have elderly parents or grandparents who don't hear about things like this.

This was my thoughts too.

We don't use this anyway.

Thank you for posting this. There are 6 in my household, and yes we've used this product before. Thanks for the heads-up, about the recall on it.
