Months after FDA warning, cough syrup finally recalled
In October of 2019, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration recommended that parent company Efficient Laboratories recall Rompe Pecho EX and Rompe Pecho CF cough syrups due to possible microbial contamination. It took more than a few months, but Efficient Laboratories finally issued the recall in late January of this year. The recalled products are listed below. If you’re looking for the lot number and expiration dates, they can be found on the bottom of the cartons.

Consumption of the recalled cough medicine can, “in rare circumstances”, lead to vomiting and diarrhea.

If you purchased the recalled product, it should not be used, instead it should be returned to your retailer for a refund.
