My mother works in a dr office and was sent an email from the CDC. ALL children's Tylenol, (from infants to jr, any form) has been recalled! It may be contaminated with a bacteria that is deadly! All the lot numbers, for those that have been recalled start with an "S". I personally have 2 bottles (.5oz size) that are on the list that is over 2 pages long (SCM005 & SDM020). I will try to get the list tomorrow, and update this post with the full list! But for now, here are the two that I know the full lot number for.

For those who know for sure that yours is on the list ( in the replies, I will make sure it is the complete list in the morning and update), you can call the company, and get a brand new full sized bottle.

If the numbers are gone, I would just throw it out, to be safe. In the recall it is a "better safe than sorry". I have thrown out all of mine, but one that the lot number starts with "a".

For those who's children have been taking it, and the lot number is on the list, call the nurse hotline, tell them about the recall, that yours is on the list and how the illness started, how long it has been there and any new or persisting symptoms. Good luck, hopefully they are right, that this is just to cover their butts just in case type thing.

There was some misunderstanding with the OP. When I said all, I meant all forms, as in, even some of the chewable and quick-melt types are on the recall. The only ones in the recall have lot numbers that start with "S". Here is the complete list. This is a voluntary recall. Basically to cover their butts in case something did get through. But because it has to do with our children, IMO, it is best to call them and get a replacement (for free) then to just ignore it cause it probably wont happen. No money our of your pocket. So no worries about wasted money.

RECALL ALERT! Some Kids Tylenol Yanked from ShelvesA recall alert issued by Tylenol will no doubt be sending parents scrambling for their medicine cabinet this week, so Babble has pulled together the details of what you need to look for while you're there.

The recall is not being advertised on the Tylenol Website or even the Food and Drug Administration site, so we went right to the source the Customer Care Center at Tylenol.

There they said the recall is only a "warehouse recall," and store owners have already been advised to pull the drug from their shelves. They also directed doctors to pull sample bottles from their shelves. The best news? The drug is safe. It's a voluntary recall, which according to NY Pediatrician Dr. Seth Gordon came because "examination of bulk raw material detected that one of the inactive ingredients contained gram-negative bacteria Burkholderia cepacia (B. cepacia). The portion of raw material in which the bacteria was found was isolated and was not used in the production of any finished product."

That means there is no B. cepacia in any of the medicine bottles, and kids are safe. But parents have the option of calling Tylenol to see whether the bottle in their cabinet is part of the recall and get help in re-stocking their shelves.

The lot numbers to look for:
