This information was recently provided to Healthcare Providers and there is no indication that the recalled products (noted below) do not meet quality standards and there have been no adverse events reported. Because you may hear of a recall, we wanted you to know what was reported:

McNeil Consumer Healthcare has announced that a voluntary recall has been initiated of all product lots of Children's Benadryl(r) Allergy Fastmelt(r) Tablets, Cherry and Grape, 18-count packages distributed in the United States (Belize, Barbados, Canada, Puerto Rico, St. Martin, and St. Thomas). This recall was initiated by McNeil due to insufficiencies in the development of the manufacturing process.

This is a wholesale and retail level recall only. No action is required by consumers or healthcare providers and you can continue to use the product. Banyan International is providing information of this recall action so that there is an awareness of any issues affecting the quality of the drugs in their emergency kits and refills.

If you have questions regarding this recall, please contact McNeil's Consumer Care Center at 1-888-222-6036.
