Wow, this is not the kind of post I enjoy writing. There haven't been many deals to blog about this week so it's been a little slow, and I apologize that one of the only posts this week is now bearing bad news! McNeil, the maker of Tylenol, Motrin, Benadryl, and Zyrtec, has announced a huge children's medicine product recall. Be sure to check your kiddo's medicine bottles to make sure you're not using any products that are on the list.
Personally, I am very frustrated and upset by this recall because both the infant Tylenol and Motrin that we currently have are being recalled. I buy generic for all of our adult medications, so I think I will begin buying generic children's products as well. What are your thoughts on this? Will you continue to use recalled medicine because the company states "This recall is not being undertaken on the basis of adverse medical events", or will yours immediately go in the trash?
