What happened

Walgreens' "Well at Walgreens" Multivitamin Women 50+ tablets are being recalled because the white plastic bottles do not have child-resistant caps as required by law.

The recalled bottles are identifiable by the "Well at Walgreens Multivitamin Women 50+" label with a yellow "Value Size" band, and they bear UPC number 3-11917-17262-0 and one of three lot numbers: 000001 (expiration 9/2016), 000002 (expiration 12/2016), or 000003 (expiration 11/2016).

According to the recall notice, consumers should immediately move recalled bottles out of children's reach and contact International Vitamin Corp. for a free replacement child-resistant cap.
