K.C. Pharmaceuticals is voluntarily recalling more than 3 million bottles of private-label eye drops due to “lack of assurance of sterility,” according to an announcement on the U.S. FDA site.
Retailers carrying the products include CVS, Walgreens, Rite Aid, Kroger, Target, Dollar General, Harris Teeter and Publix, among others. The drops include artificial tears, dry eye drops and redness relievers.
