King Bio is voluntarily recalling 32 children’s medicines for potential ‘microbial contamination.’

Administration or use of drug products with microbial contamination, could potentially result in increased infections that may require medical intervention, and could result in infections that could be life threatening to certain individuals. King Bio has not received reports of injury or illness to date.
