Kramer Laboratories Safetussin Max Strength Multi-Symptom Cough, Cold and Flu Recall

Child Poisoning.

CPSC recall #25223 · announced Apr 10, 2025 · verified Jul 30, 2026

Hazard

The Safetussin over-the-counter cold medicine contains acetaminophen, which must be in child-resistant packaging as required by the Poison Prevention Packaging Act. The packaging of the products is not child-resistant as a tablet can be pushed through the foil, posing a risk of poisoning if the contents are swallowed by young children.

Remedy

Consumers should immediately secure the product out of the sight and reach of children and contact Kramer Laboratories for information on how to return or dispose of the product for a full refund. Only the packaging is being recalled, not the medicine itself, but both should be disposed.
