Recall Roundup: Baby gripe water, children's cereal, turkey fryers, recalled

SAN ANTONIO – Baby gripe water sold at Dollar General has been recalled.

Kingston Pharma recalled all DG Baby Gripe Water because of the presence of an undissolved ingredient that a baby could choke on, according to a release from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.

The herbal supplement is marketed as a way to relieve discomfort from gas, colic, fussiness, hiccups and teething.

“Use of the product should not be considered hazardous, but could result in difficulty when swallowing the product for sensitive individuals,” a recall notice from Kinston Pharma said.  

The recalled product is sold in 4-ounce amber bottles and comes with an oral syringe, with UPC Code 8 5495400246 3. The product was distributed throughout the country by Dollar General Corporation.

Consumers should stop using the product and contact a health care provider if they or their children have "any problems that may be related to taking or using this product," the notice stated.

To report adverse reactions or quality problems experienced with this product, or to ask questions regarding the recall, call Christina Condon or C. Jeanne Taborsky at 844-724-7347 or email Christina.Condon@SciRegs.com.
