Arsell is recalling Benadryl Liquid Elixir in 100 mL bottles sold on Amazon.com. The medicine contains diphenhydramine, and the packaging is not child-resistant as required by federal law, posing a risk of poisoning if young children swallow the contents.

What to do

Consumers should immediately secure the Benadryl out of the sight and reach of children and contact Arsell for a full refund. Consumers will be asked to submit their Amazon order number and a photo demonstrating disposal of the recalled Benadryl to recall@arsellsupport.com. Only the bottle is being recalled, not the medicine itself, but both should be disposed of. All known purchasers are being contacted directly.

Contact: Arsell via email at recall@arsellsupport.com.
