McNeil Consumer Healthcare is recalling three lots, or about 200,000 bottles, of Concentrated MOTRIN Infants’ Drops Original Berry Flavor 1/2 ounce fl. bottles. Foreign materials of tiny plastic particles about the size of a poppy seed were identified in a different product lot during manufacturing. Officials determined that the particles originated in a shipment from a third party supplier of ibuprofen, the active ingredient in the recalled product.
The recall is being conducted out of an abundance of caution because the Infants’ Motrin was made with the same batch of active ingredient. Children’s and adult’s MOTRIN products are not included in this recall. Healthcare professionals and patients are asked to report any adverse events or side effects related to the use of this product to the FDA’s MedWatch Safety Information and Adverse Event Reporting Program.
