What to Do If You Have the Product

  1. Stop use immediately.
  2. Check the lot code on the box bottom or bottle side; if it reads 25122bw, do not use.
  3. Discard the bottle or return it to the retailer for a full refund.
  4. Report adverse reactions to both the FDA MedWatch program and Pacific Health Sciences (310-457-1775, myorder@pacifichealth.com).

Health Risks of Undeclared Alcohols

While ethanol is used in some medications, concentrations above 5 % can cause dosing and toxicity issues in infants. Methanol and isopropanol are far more dangerous: ingestion may trigger vomiting, headache, blurred vision, respiratory depression or, in severe cases, blindness and coma. Infants are especially vulnerable due to immature liver and kidney function.

Company & FDA Response

Pacific Health Sciences reports no adverse events to date and is cooperating fully with the FDA. The recall is limited to Lot 25122bw; no other Babies' Magic Tea or Pacific Health Sciences products are affected.
