My Friend Roland from Coupon Pro emailed this to me. It is really important and I wanted to share.

From Coupon Pro Blog:

BREAKING: Recall of Excedrin, NoDoz, Gas-X and Bufferin

JANUARY 8, 2012 – Novartis Consumer Health (NCH) is voluntarily recalling all selected bottle sizes of Excedrin and NoDoz products with expiration dates of December 20, 2014 or earlier as well as Bufferin and Gas-X Prevention products with expiration dates of December 20, 2013 or earlier, in the United States. What’s the reason? Because the products may contain stray tablets, capsules, or caplets from other Novartis products, or contain broken or chipped tablets.

Here are the full recall details:

This is huge for couponers because many of these products released coupons quite often. I just found a bottle of Excedrin Extra Strength with an expiration date of February 13 in my medical drawer, so please check check check because I know many of you may have these products. And spread the word by sharing this post!

How to get a refund on your recalled products?

If you have any of the products stated, make sure to contact the Novartis Consumer Relationship Center at 1-888-477-2403 (available Monday-Friday 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. Eastern Time) for information on how to return the affected products and receive reimbursement. You may also get a refund via mail by fill out out this Refund Form.

I was able to get through the line. They will reimburse the suggested retail price for the product and a $2 shipping charge for each bottle returned. You do not need a receipt and they do not need to be in the box (they will still honor it without the UPC). A separate form needed for each return.

I was told that Walmart is taking back all open & unopened bottles with no receipt required… do you know if this is true?
