The FDA and GSK Consumer Healthcare care recalling several lots of Children’s Robitussin Honey Cough and Chest Congestion DM and one lot of Children’s Dimetapp Cold and Cough. Seems that the dosing cups included with these products have no 5 and/or 10 milliliter dosing markings rendering the cups useless to parents. The cups have only 20 milliliter markings, and using this much of the product could be dangerous depending upon the weight of the child. The lots involved are 02177 and 02178 for the Robitussin and lot CL8292 for the Dimetapp. If you have these products, don’t use the measuring cups. Contact GSK at 1-800-762-4675 to obtain the proper dosing cups.
