Yikes! Well, (partial) credit to them for (belatedly) taking the "Tylenol" approach.

When the pain-killing tablets were being tampered with by sickos, J&J took them off the shelf, and came back with more tamper-resistant caplets. It cost them some revenue in the short term, but the PR benefit was still being ballyhooed years later.
