Tylenol liquid for children is recalled

WASHINGTON, Sept. 24 (UPI) -- McNeil Consumer Healthcare -- the maker of Tylenol -- is recalling certain lots of children's and infants' Tylenol liquid products.

The company said it's recalling children's and infants' Tylenol liquid manufactured between April and June. An examination of one of the inactive ingredients showed it did not meet internal testing requirements.

Officials said the recall does not apply to children's Tylenol Meltaways or Junior Strength Tylenol Meltaways. The voluntary recall applies only to specific lots of children's and infants' Tylenol liquid products, the company said.

Consumers with the recalled products or with questions can contact the company at 800-962-5357.

The company said parents and caregivers who have given the product to their child or infant and have concerns should contact their child's healthcare provider.

The recalled lot numbers -- located on the bottom of the box containing the product and also on the sticker that surrounds the product bottle -- are available at http://www.tylenol.com/page.jhtml?id=tylenol/news/subpchildinfantnews.inc.
