Some Acetaminophen recalled — but you have to guess which ones!

I don’t get this. Perrigo Co. makes generic Tylenol (acetaminophen) for stores like Wal-Mart and Costco. They’ve just recalled a bunch of it because they’ve found metal filings in some of the tablets.

PIECES OF METAL!

But: “Perrigo declined to say which stores carry the acetaminophen.” What??

Some of the stores they make meds for include Wal-Mart, CVS, Walgreens, Safeway, Food Lion and Costco. Have any generic Tylenol that you bought from one of those places? Check the FDA’s list to see if your batch is on it.
