Pennsylvania’s McNeil Consumer & Specialty Pharmaceuticals is voluntarily recalling its 80 mg Children’s Tylenol Meltaways, packaged in bottles and blisters. The company also is recalling its 80 mg SoftChews packaged in blisters and its 160 mg Jr. Meltaways packaged in blisters. The blister package design, as well as the information on the blister package and on the blister and bottle cartons may be confusing and could lead to improper dosing, including over-dosing, the company said Friday. Concerns have been raised that labeling on the carton and on the back of the two-tablet cavities may erroneously suggest to the consumer that two tablets provide a total of 80 mg of the active ingredient, acetaminophen, when two tablets would actually provide 160 mg of acetaminophen. Customers may call McNeil’s Consumer Relationship Center at 1-877-895-3665. © Copyright 2005 by United Press International
