Tylenol recall




U.S. News online reports in its health section that there has been a Tylenol recall as of Monday, October 18; the report states that nearly 128 thousand bottles of Tylenol eight-hour caplets included chemical combinations producing a mold-like odor.

US Post Today online said that the chemicals causing these smells were called 2,4,6-tribomoanisole. The company Johnson and Johnson has issued several recalls in 2010 throughout the U.S. and Puerto Rico.

The recalled pills with the unusual odor when taken caused nausea, stomach pain, vomiting and diarrhea.
