LNK International, Inc. is recalling 8,472 bottles of Acetaminophen Extra Strength (500 mg) Pain Reliever / Fever Reducer because the label incorrectly describes the tablets as 'enteric coated.' While the product contains the correct medication, the tablets are actually standard coated tablets and do not have the specific enteric coating that allows them to pass through the stomach before dissolving. These products were distributed by Amerisource Bergen in 50-count bottles and were sold in Pennsylvania.
The product label claims the tablets are 'enteric coated,' which is a feature intended to delay the release of medication until it reaches the small intestine. Because these tablets are only standard coated, they may dissolve sooner than expected, which could potentially lead to stomach irritation for users who specifically require enteric-coated formulations.
