Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.

What happened

Sun Pharma is recalling Kroger brand Acetaminophen Extended-Release Tablets because the packaging does not meet child-resistant packaging requirements mandated by the Poison Prevention Packaging Act. The recalled product is Kroger brand Acetaminophen 650mg in bottles of 100 caplets with a red, white, and gray label and white continuous thread closure. The affected UPC is 041260012877, and the batch codes involved are AC45463, AC38213, or AC30682 (located at the bottom of the bottle label). Because acetaminophen is a regulated substance that must be in child-resistant packaging, the non-compliant packaging poses a poisoning risk if young children access and swallow the contents.

According to the record, consumers should immediately store the recalled products in a safe location out of reach and sight of children. Consumers should contact Kroger for information on how to properly dispose of the product and to receive a full refund.
