Since today's NYTimes was the first time I've seen it mentioned in the papers, and Tylenol is the only approved for pregnant women pain-killer, I thought it would be an appropriate post. (That, and I'm just exhausted, notice no post yesterday.) The reason for the recall has been going on for 20 months and Johnson and Johnson is just now making it public. So I'm going to be boycotting J&J for their dumb move. I don't care if nobody has died yet, drug companies need to be responsible for their actions and do a recall if there is any HINT of a problem with their products. Rolaids and a few other drugs are also being recalled. http://www.mcneilproductrecall.com/ lists all of the products and the serial numbers. They also have a space to enter any serial number off of a drug bottle and the website will tell you whether or not the batch has been recalled.
Remember, we vote with our dollars when it comes to corporate policies, so show Johnson & Johnson (and their subsidiary McNeil) what you think!
