Pharmatech LLC is recalling various liquid over-the-counter medications, including Rugby Diocto Liquid and Syrup (docusate sodium), Rugby Senexon/Major Senna Syrup (sennosides), and Rugby Aller-chlor (chlorpheniramine maleate). These products are being recalled due to the presence of yeast and potential contamination with Burkholderia cepacia (B. cepacia), a type of bacteria. All lots remaining within their expiration dates are affected. Consumers who have purchased these products should stop using them immediately and consult a healthcare professional, especially if they have underlying health conditions.
The products may contain yeast or B. cepacia bacteria, which can cause serious, life-threatening infections in people with weakened immune systems or chronic lung diseases like cystic fibrosis.
