Medique is recalling about 143,300 units of 31 different over-the-counter drug products under several brand names including Medi-First, Medique, and Otis Clapp because the packaging is not child-resistant as required by law. These medications, which include common pain relievers like aspirin, acetaminophen, and ibuprofen, as well as allergy and burn treatments, were sold exclusively on Amazon.com between June 2018 and June 2020. Consumers should immediately move these products to a secure location and contact Medique for disposal instructions and a full refund.
The packaging for these medications fails to meet child-resistant requirements, creating a significant risk of accidental poisoning if a young child is able to open the container and swallow the contents. While no injuries have been reported, many of these substances are highly toxic to children in small doses.
Consumers should immediately store the recalled products in a safe location out of reach of children and contact Medique for information on how to dispose of the product and receive a full refund. All known purchasers are being notified directly.
