The CPSC and Geri-Care Pharmaceuticals are now recalling over-the-counter Geri-Care Aspirin in the low dose 81 mg and the normal dose 325 mg dosages as well as their Acetaminophen in the 500 mg dosage.  These medications are not marketed in child-resistant packaging and create a risk of poisoning for children.  About 800 packages were sold nationwide online at a variety of sites including amazon.com, drugstoresupply.com, and eBay.com.  Immediately store any of these products out of the reach of children until you can safely dispose of them.  For more information, call Geri-Care Pharmaceuticals by phone at 1-800-540-3765 or via email at [email protected].
