Robert K is right.
Anyway, these are the meds:

NBC.Com you can go there and look but it was from overdosing….. i guess people just cant read. Sad.
They weren’t recalled, they were just taken off the shelves due to parents misusing them. It was mostly cold meds that were taken off the market.
Some parents give too much of a dose, some parents give to children who shouldn’t be getting the medication b/c of being too young. Simply put, the parents were abusing the medication.
Due to fear of lawsuits from irresponsible or illiterate (cannot read and follow dosage instructions) parents.
Edit: didn’t read the question correctly, my mistake. Pitusi is right.
