A nationwide recall of nearly 90,000 bottles of children’s ibuprofen has been upgraded to Class II, the Food and Drug Administration's second-highest level of recall, following reports that the medication contained a “foreign substance.”

Earlier this month, Strides Pharma, Inc., a pharmaceutical company headquartered in India, recalled 89,592 bottles of Children’s Ibuprofen Oral Suspension, USP after reports of a “gel-like mass and black particles” in the product, the FDA says.
