Children's Medicine Manufacturer's Plant Unsafe
The F.D.A. released findings Tuesday that the only plant that makes many popular over-the-counter pediatric medicines lacks sufficient quality control measures and has failed to investigate consumer complaints over contaminated product. Last week, Johnson & Johnson, who owns the plant through a subsidiary, recalled 43 over-the-counter pediatric medicines in the United States, its territories and nine other countries, affecting 70 percent of the market for over-the-counter children's medicine. F.D.A. officials said the plant used raw materials that were contaminated with an unknown bacteria and received 46 customer complaints over contaminated medicines. Federal officials did stress that serious harm from the recalled drugs was "remote." Lyndsey Layton, The Washington Post 05/05/2010

The toys were sold from January 2007 to October 2009 at Babies "R" Us, Kmart, Sears, Target and Walmart. No deaths have been reported involving the playpens. Staff Report, Chicago Tribune 12/30/2009
