Church & Dwight Co., Inc. recalled ZICAM" MEDICATED FRUIT DROPS ELDERBERRY FLAVOR in Oct 2025 — an FDA Class II recall (D-0095-2026) because Labeling: Label Mix-up: The product in the bottle contains elderberry and the label failed to indicate the inclusion of elderberry as an ingredient.

Why it was recalled
Labeling: Label Mix-up: The product in the bottle contains elderberry and the label failed to indicate the inclusion of elderberry as an ingredient.
Labelling, packaging or a product mix-up
The wrong information — or the wrong medicine — ended up in the pack. A mix-up is a manufacturing failure that can still be dangerous to swallow.
This is a manufacturing or quality failure, not a finding that the medicine is unsafe to take — across every recall we hold, none was issued for that reason. It does not mean the batch was harmless.
