A commonly used over-the-counter medication for stomach and gas ailments was recalled nationwide, according to a notice published on the Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA) database this week.
The notice said that 285,330 blister cards of Gas-X, which contains simethicone in 125-milligram doses, in 120-count soft gel packs, are under recall, according to the notice.
The recalling company, New Jersey-based Haleon US Holdings, said the reason for the recall is a labeling issue due to “incomplete inactive ingredient information on the carton labeling.” It did not provide any additional details.
Three lots of the medication are under recall: lot KB5Y has an expiration date of April 2024, lot MP4B has an expiration date of May 2028, and lot SS4F has an expiration date of September 2028….
