Johnson & Johnson Recalls Mylanta Product
A recent recall from Johnson and Johnson company has resulted in 12 million bottles of Mylanta and thousands of bottles of AltenaGel antacids being pulled from shelves. The company has stated that the recall was necessary in order to protect consumers and live up to their standard of quality and excellence.
The Mylanta recall was the direct result of alcohol in some of the flavoring agents that some consumers observed on the packaging. On Johnson & Johnson’s website it stated that adverse affects of using the product were highly unlikely and that they were not concerned. As many of the retail stores have already taken off these products from their shelves, the company has stated that their products are still safe to use and still encourage people to keep buying them regularly as they have done in the past. Many speculate that this recent recall has hurt the company’s image and that they may not be able to recover from it.
Johnson and Johnson have recently been experiencing problems with recalls for their products and it has been unsettling to consumers who regularly use their products. Regardless of whether or not the company feels that the danger of their recalled product is not a cause for concern, there is still a possibility for injury or illness. If you have used the recently recalled Mylanta or the AlernaGel antacid and suffered illness as a result, then contacting a professional can help you explore options for compensation.
