tylenol recall/ Monday report

As you may have heard, several Mcneil products including Childrens and Infant Tylenol, Motrin and Zytrec have been recalled.
They say that the products are not a health risk, but there are some quality control issues that they need to deal with. If your child has taken one of the products and seems to be just fine, Relax. We have NOT seen any adverse reactions.
However if you have the affected lots you should return the products and get reimbursed
For more information go to www.mcneilproductrecall.com
In the meanwhile, it is our understanding that the generic products are safe and available. As another option Acetaminophen suppositories are also available from the parmacist without a prescription.

Here is the Monday report on "what's going around"....

*Left over tummy virus, vomiting, diarrhea with a bit of a fever
*coughs and colds, with the cough lingering for several weeks
*several kids with aches and fevers lasting about 3 days
*some strep throat

here's to a healthy week
