In a concerning turn of events, Haleon has issued a nationwide recall of Robitussin cough syrup due to microbial contamination, as announced by the U.S.-based unit of the U.K.-based global consumer health company. This recall has been initiated in response to the potential health hazards associated with the presence of microbial contamination, which could lead to severe and even life-threatening fungal infections, particularly for individuals with compromised immune systems.

According to the notice posted by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the use of the recalled Robitussin products poses a serious risk to at-risk individuals, and while most users may not experience severe health issues, the potential for infections requiring medical intervention cannot be ruled out.

Consumers who have purchased any of the recalled products are strongly advised not to use them. Haleon has provided a helpline for customers with questions, reachable at (800) 245–1040 from Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Eastern time, or via email at mystory.us@haleon.com.

It is essential for consumers to act responsibly in response to product recalls to safeguard their health and the well-being of their loved ones.
