Plastikon Healthcare Medication Microbial Injury Lawsuits

According to a news report published on wtkr.com, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, Plastikon Healthcare, LLC, is voluntarily recalling six (6) lots of Magnesium Hydroxide 1200mg/Aluminum Hydroxide 1200mg/Simethicone 120mg per 30 mL, one (1) lot of Acetaminophen 650mg/ 20.3mL and three (3) lots of Milk of Magnesia 2400 mg/30 mL Oral Suspension at the patient, clinic, and hospital level.
