A manufactuer of medicines (non-prescription) has had licence pulled and recall. From news.com.au
"Pan first came to the attention of the TGA over its travel sickness tablet Travacalm, which was recalled in January, Parliamentary health secretary Trish Worth said.
Faulty batches of the tablets resulted in at least 87 adverse reactions and 19 hospitalisations.
In some cases people attempted to jump out of planes or off boats because they were experiencing severe hallucinations, Ms Worth said."
Apparently it's worse than described as they have been doing contract manufacture of all sorts of stuff - stand by for the next thrilling announcement.
