Family Dollar is initiating a voluntary retail-level product recall of certain over-the-counter drugs and medical devices regulated by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). These items were stored outside of labeled temperature requirements by Family Dollar and inadvertently shipped to certain stores on or around June 1, 2023, through September 21, 2023. These items were sold at those stores between June 1, 2023, and October 4, 2023. To date, Family Dollar has not received any consumer complaints or reports of illness related to this voluntary recall. This recall only applies to the following 23 states as no Family Dollar stores in any of the other states received any products subject to this recall: AL, AR, AZ, CA, CO, FL, GA, ID, KS, LA, MS, MT, ND, NE, NM, NV, OK, OR, SD, TX, UT, WA, and WY.
You can see the list of the recalled products in the link below.
This recall goes to the retail store level. Not all of the products listed were sent to all stores. Family Dollar has notified its affected stores asking them to check their stock immediately and to quarantine and discontinue the sale of any affected product.
Customers who purchased affected products may return them to the Family Dollar store where they were purchased without a receipt.
In case you experience harm from this product, it is important to report it. It can help to detect & resolve issues and prevent others from being harmed, and it enables better surveillance. If symptoms persist, seek medical care.
