The FDA(food and drug administration) is looking closely at McNeil (a division of Johnson and Johnson) because there has been a report that the last drug recalled has a least 775 serious side effects. included in these side effects was death which has effected 30 people, but none were found to be tied to Tylenol, Motrin, or Benadryl drugs between the time of Jan. 1, 2008 through April 30, 2010. The FDA is also investigating because of the recall of 50 children's versions because of serious quality and safety concerns. Some of the consumer complaints from these medications were death, hospitalization, disability, and other health complications. A hearing has been made for May 27 to examine the recall. It's a good time because Johnson and Johnson have had 4 recalls in just the past 7 months. But McNeil would like to mention that the children's drugs were stooped just as a precautionary measure
The problem Medications have been traced to the Fort Washington, Penn plant where earlier this year the FDA issued a 17 page inspection report listing 20 violations the plant had made
This is scary. Johnson and Johnson is one of the biggest producers of a lot of different goods. If things like this keep happening, who are people going to be able to trust. I can't believe that this plant was not shut down until problems were fixed, which they clearly were not if this is still happening, knowing that its killing people and has a great possibility to hurt many little babies. they really need to get their act together and quickly.
