Robitussin Honey Cold, Flu + Sore Throat Adult Maximum Strength products recalled
Haleon is voluntarily recalling select lots of their Adult Robitussin Honey Cold, Flu + Sore Throat Max Day and Nighttime products, due to the possibility of microbial contamination, according to a Department of Defense All Food and Drug Activity message sent Jan. 24.
In immunocompromised individuals, the use of the affected product could potentially result in severe or life-threatening adverse events such as fungemia or disseminated fungal infection. In non-immunocompromised consumers, the population most likely to use the product, life-threatening infections are not likely to occur. However, the occurrence of an infection that may necessitate medical intervention cannot be completely ruled out.
The Defense Commissary Agency has publicized this recall to all its stores, said Richard Stith, chief, public health division, DeCA headquarters and support center at Fort Gregg-Adams, Virginia. Whenever a commissary has recalled or withdrawn products in its inventory, they are immediately removed from store shelves.
