Mylanta


Mylanta is a brand of over-the-counter drugs for digestive problems, manufactured by Infirst Healthcare USA under license from McNeil Consumer Healthcare, a division of Johnson & Johnson (formerly Pfizer since 2007 following its acquisition). It includes several different products intended to treat heartburn and bloating.

Recall and availability

In November 2010 Mylanta was voluntarily recalled[1] due to what is described as some labelling concerns. According to sources within the company at that time, these concerns stemmed from the fact that small traces of alcohol were found in the flavoring agents of the liquid version of the antacid which was not disclosed on the labelling itself, and that the problem would be rectified "shortly". Generic liquid antacids comparable to Mylanta are now available (e.g., under the brand name "equaline"[2] among others).

Mylanta was reintroduced to the market in 2016.[3]

gollark: I'm not sure how "some subgroup may end up able to shift the balance of sports rather a lot" is the same problem as "there exist many stupid people in America".
gollark: That seems like just another variation on the "other problems exist, so ignore this potential one" argument.
gollark: Those seem like oddly nuanced protest signs.
gollark: I also wonder if they've actually done anything at all to the non-Google/Facebook companies.
gollark: I don't like Facebook, but it seems like a bad system.
