Pfizer Recalls Odiferous OTC Headache Meds
Pfizer is recalling more than half a million bottles of OTC headache drug Advil Liqui-Gels after customers complained of strong product odors and mildly troubled tummies, the drugmaker says. Pfizer and the company’s Argentinean contractor Catalent have isolated and fixed the issue — a gelatin manufacturing deviation, Pfizer spokeswoman Jenifer Antonacci said Monday. The odor was caused by over-processing gelatin, a natural ingredient with varying and inherent odor characteristics, Antonacci said. Gelatin is used in forming the soft capsule.
