TOPEKA ( KSNT ) – Federal health officials say a brand of cough syrup sold nationally is being recalled due to contamination concerns.
The Food and Drug Administration ( FDA ) said Haleon is voluntarily recalling eight lots of its “Robitussin Honey CF Max Day Adult” and “Robitussin Honey CF Max Nighttime Adult” due to microbial contamination. The concern primarily lies with immunocompromised people as taking the recalled products could result in life-threatening events such as fungemia or disseminated fungal infection.
Those who are not immunocompromised are not likely to encounter life-threatening issues. However, the FDA warns that use of the recalled product may still result in a dangerous infection.
The product was sold to consumers nationally, including in Kansas, according to the FDA. Haleon has yet to receive any reports of illness attached to the recalled products which include:
- Robitussin Honey CF Max Day Adult 4 oz
