Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Approximately 17,000 bottles of Well at Walgreens Multivitamin Women 50+ tablets are being recalled because the packaging does not meet child-resistant and senior-friendly safety standards. These supplements contain iron, which is toxic to children and can lead to serious injury or death if multiple tablets are consumed at once. The white plastic bottles contain 200 tablets and were sold at Walgreens stores nationwide between January and March 2015. International Vitamin Corp. is providing a free replacement child-resistant cap to affected consumers.

Risk

The bottle caps are not child-resistant, allowing young children to easily open the container and ingest the tablets. Because the vitamins contain iron, accidental ingestion of multiple tablets poses a severe poisoning hazard that can cause serious injury or death to children.

What You Should Do

  1. Check your vitamin bottle for the product name 'Well at Walgreens Multivitamin Women 50+' printed on a white and silver label with a yellow 'Value Size' band at the top.
  2. Identify if your bottle is affected by checking for UPC number 3-11917-17262-0 and one of the following lot codes and expiration dates on the back label: 000001 (EXP 9/2016), 000002 (EXP 12/2016), or 000003 (EXP 11/2016).
  3. Immediately move any recalled vitamin bottles to a secure location out of the reach and sight of children.
