Excedrin has recalled over 430,000 bottles of painkillers due to manufacturing issues that may have left holes in the bottom of some of the bottles, posing a health risk to children.

“This recall involves 50, 80, 100, 125, 200, 250 and 300-count bottles of Excedrin Migraine Caplets, Excedrin Migraine Geltabs, Excedrin Extra Strength Caplets, Excedrin PM Headache Caplets, and Excedrin Tension Headache Caplets,” according to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission. A full list of products is available on Excedrin’s website.

Excedrin bottles without holes can be kept and used as directed. Those with holes, however, can be returned to GlaxoSmithKline for a full refund. The company issued a “stop sale” alert in October, but only now upgraded that to a full recall.
