⚠️ Important Recall Alert for Parents
The FDA has announced a nationwide recall of nearly 90,000 bottles of children’s ibuprofen due to reports of foreign material, including black particles and gel-like substances found in some bottles.
The recall affects:
• Children’s Ibuprofen Oral Suspension (100 mg/5 mL)
• Lot numbers 7261973A & 7261974A
• Expiration date January 31, 2027
This is classified as a Class II recall, meaning it may cause temporary or medically reversible health effects, though serious harm is unlikely.
What parents should do:
✔ Check your medicine cabinet
✔ Do NOT use affected bottles
✔ Dispose of it or return it to where you purchased it
✔ Contact your pediatrician if your child has taken it and you have concerns
Even if this specific product isn’t in your home, it’s a great reminder to regularly check medications for recalls and expiration dates.
