Johnson & Johnson Recall: Faulty Cleaning Procedures Blamed
Johnson & Johnson (J&J) blames the massive recalls of its medicines totaling over 200 million bottles in the last year and criminal charges on lax cleaning procedures at a manufacturing plant. J&J is now recalling Rolaids, Tylenol and Benadryl in addition to other products it makes.
The problems date back to 2007 and, according to J&J, have been traced to its Fort Washington, Pennsylvania plant. The problem has affected many of the company's brands.
