Haleon Recalls Four Lots of Gas‑X Extra Strength Softgels

The recall removes potentially contaminated bottles after a packaging‑line coolant leak that may have deposited a diluted propylene glycol solution on softgels.

Overview

  • Haleon announced Thursday that it is voluntarily recalling four lots of Gas‑X Extra Strength Softgels sold in 120‑count and 72‑count bottles and distributed to consumers in mid‑April through mid‑May 2026.
  • The recall covers three 120‑count lots (TL8K, YH9X, YH9Y; UPC 300674350419) and one 72‑count lot (X78N; UPC 300439005721) with distribution windows from April 13 to May 14, 2026.
  • Company and FDA notices say the lots may have been contaminated by a diluted propylene glycol‑based coolant that leaked from packaging machinery and that Haleon has identified the root cause and repaired the equipment.
  • Haleon is notifying distributors and retailers, arranging returns and reimbursements for affected bottles, and says it has received no reports of adverse events to date; the FDA encourages reporting through its MedWatch program.
  • Consumers should stop using affected lot numbers, check packaging UPCs and lot codes, contact Haleon Consumer Relations for return and reimbursement, and consult a healthcare provider if they experience nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain or diarrhea.
