Noting that the recall was a voluntary prevent measure, a J&J spokeswoman was quoted by Pharmalot as saying, "The risk to women is considered to be very low as there is no impact on the safety or efficacy of the product."
The recall excludes the US market and specifically affects the wholesale and pharmacy level, which includes 179 batches with each batch containing 180,000 boxes on the consumer level.
In the recent past, around 3.3 million bottles of Tylenol Drops were recalled by the healthcare firm in Brazil citing that the dropper has some defect which was resulting in an overdose.
