            Okay Johnson & Johnson, once I get but twice? And for the same product, seriously? Come on now. The company recalled yet another batch of Tylenol products because consumers complained about a "musty" smell.

            Johnson & Johnson's McNeil division (which produces over-the-counter drugs such as Tylenol, Motrin and Benadryl) said the latest recall included one lot of Tylenol 8 Hour (150 count) extended release caplets, which is about 34,000 bottles.

            McNeil recalled more than 50 million bottles of Tylenol, Motrin and Benadryl products last year after receiving complaints of an unusual moldy, musty odor.

            The company made the statement, that at the time the smell was being caused by trace amounts of a chemical called 2, 4, 6 tribromoanisole, which was applied to the wooden pallets that were used to transport and store packaging materials.

            The company also recommended to anyone who recently purchased these products to stop using them. Consumers can also contact McNeil Consumer Healthcare, either at www.tylenol.com or by calling 1-888-222-6036 for instructions about receiving a refund or product coupon.

Also the company says to consumers who have medical concerns or questions should contact their healthcare provider.

Frankly this is a bit ridiculous, there company is to help create medicine to help relieve people of discomforts or sickness and yet their causing it….ironic?
