Approximately 18,376,618 units of various liquid medications and suppositories, including products like RisperiDONE, Children's Acetaminophen, and Robafen cough syrups, are being recalled due to potential contamination with bacteria including Burkholderia cepacia and Ralstonia pickettii. The recall was initiated following deviations in manufacturing practices at the Bio-Pharm Inc. facility that could compromise product safety. These products were sold under various brands such as Major Pharmaceuticals, Rugby Laboratories, and Heritage Pharmaceuticals across the United States.
The affected products may be contaminated with bacteria that can cause serious infections, particularly in children, the elderly, or individuals with weakened immune systems.
